Most studies of the effects of transport infrastructure on the performance of individual firms have focused on marginal … the quality of transport infrastructure, viz. the opening of the Great Belt bridge connecting the Copenhagen area with a … neighboring island and the mainland of Denmark. We analyse the effect of the opening of the bridge on the productivity of firms …

What determines the aggregate and distributional effects of new transportation infrastructure? One key overlooked … channel is the role that infrastructure policy plays in changing the incentives of firms to enter, exit, and grow--in turn … generating endogenous changes in local productivity. In this paper, we document and quantify the importance of this channel by …

infrastructure investment on productivity and an evaluation of such effects would provide a useful check on the appropriateness and … model to estimate the productivity effects of a specific infrastructure project. However, the analysis in this paper …The paper investigates the feasibility of using a variant of the spatial equilibrium model to estimate the productivity …

infrastructure spillovers to productivity and, consequently, results in incredibly high estimates of infrastructure elasticity … modelling of the relationship (i.e. a cointegration) reflects the important positive role of infrastructure on productivity … differenced data found infrastructure has no discernible effect on productivity. In addition, applying a causality test suggests a …

This paper focuses on the question whether public infrastructure capital matters for labor productivity in China, both … over time and across regions. It finds that public infrastructure is a significant determinant of variations in labor … productivity across provinces, but the contribution of public capital to labor productivity growth over time is likely non …

Empirical explorations of the growth and aggregate productivity impacts of infrastructure have been characterized by … manufacturing over the 1970–2000 period, and a range of 19 infrastructure measures, explores the question of infrastructure … the possibility of endogeneity in the infrastructure measures renders the impact of infrastructure capital not only …
