External costs - External benefits (cents per person per km)

The external costs (in cents per person per km) that fall on the state and the community, e.g. in the form of environmental and accident costs:)

• pedestrians and cyclists = 5.20 cents
• car = 3.44 cents
• rail = 3.14 cents
• bus = 3.12 cents
  

External benefits in the form of reduced healthcare costs (for all those who finance the healthcare system): pedestrians & cyclists = 12.11 cents per person per km. So for every kilometre a person walks or cycles, they save society 6.91 cents in expenditure.
