Glenn and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first in a series of six research reports focusing on the process of preparing and evaluating feasibility studies for private toll road projects in Texas. At present, one of the requirements for preliminary approval of a private toll road by the Texas Transportation Commission is that the Commission must find, on the basis of a feasibility study submitted by the sponsors of a private toll road project, that the project will be financially viable. An attempt to evaluate the financial viability of one private toll road project seeking preliminary approval by the Commission revealed some problems in the evaluation process, stemming from an inadequate list of the data and information that should be included in the required feasibility study, and an imprecise definition of financial viability. The overall objective of this research project is to develop improved procedures for TxDOT's use in determining whether a proposed private toll road project will be financially viable. This report describes the data and information that other states, investment banks, and rating agencies require in feasibility studies for private toll roads.

This book was released on 1998 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the final summary report from a research study focusing on the process of preparing and evaluating feasibility studies for private toll road projects in Texas. State legislation requires that the sponsors of a proposed toll road project submit a feasibility study to the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT). The financial viability of a proposed project, as documented in the feasibility study, must be considered by the Texas Transportation Commission as part of the approval process. This study was undertaken to examine the issues associated with toll road feasibility studies, the approaches being used in other states, and possible procedures TxDOT can use in determining whether a proposed private toll road project will be financially viable. This report describes the toll road project proposal process in other states, as well as information required from investment banks and rating agencies. The report presents suggested guidelines for preparing toll road feasibility studies, reviewing submitted feasibility studies, and examining the financial viability of private toll roads in Texas.
Download or read book Mastering the Risky Business of Public Private Partnerships in Infrastructure written by Manal Fouad and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2021-05-10 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Investment in infrastructure can be a driving force of the economic recovery in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic in the context of shrinking fiscal space. Public-private partnerships (PPP) bring a promise of efficiency when carefully designed and managed, to avoid creating unnecessary fiscal risks. But fiscal illusions prevent an understanding the sources of fiscal risks, which arise in all infrastructure projects, and that in PPPs present specific characteristics that need to be addressed. PPP contracts are also affected by implicit fiscal risks when they are poorly designed, particularly when a government signs a PPP contract for a project with no financial sustainability. This paper reviews the advantages and inconveniences of PPPs, discusses the fiscal illusions affecting them, identifies a diversity of fiscal risks, and presents the essentials of PPP fiscal risk management.
