eng	Designing prices for the use of railway infrastructure	The latest update of annual inland transport infrastructure investment across the 34 member states of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) shows that continued economic crisis has caused a decline to a record low 0.8% of GDP. However, the study by the International Transport Forum (ITF) also shows that despite the overall decline, the railway is now receiving a greater proportion of the funding being made available by governments. The share of investment in railways in total investment in inland transport increased from 17% to 26% between 1995 and 2013, a rise which has been driven primarily by developments in Japan, North America, and Europe. In western Europe, rail's share of transport investment increased from around 30% in 1995 to 40% in 2013. The ITF notes that the trend observed in this region reflects a political commitment to the development of railways, and recent data does not seem to indicate any change in policy. However, in central and eastern Europe investment is skewed heavily towards road, which saw its share of inland transport investment increase from 66% in 1995 to 84% in 2005. Nonetheless, the ITF identifies a potential break in this upward trend as road's share fell back to 76% by 2013.	railway;infrastructure;price;transport
