		Empirical studies on the cost structure of Public Transit Networks are mainly based on specialized firms providing urban or intercity services.
		In this study we estimate a translogarithmic variable cost function to assess the behaviour of returns to scale and the impact of network characteristics.
		Implications of such a strategy for the design of tender mechanisms are also underlined, together with the need for a regulatory policy which takes more care of speed-up measures.
