Fixed costs are incurred to make transportation services available and involve the provision of infrastructure, rights of way, terminals, and the control equipment for their operations. They do not change with the level of traffic but provide a level of capacity.
Operating costs (or variable) are incurred when traffic takes place and are a function of its intensity. They mainly include labor, fuel (or energy), and maintenance.
