The document summarizes two case studies of public-private partnership (PPP) infrastructure projects: the Brisbane Airport Link Tunnel in Australia and the Canada Line rapid transit project in Vancouver, Canada. The Brisbane project ran into financial difficulties due to overestimated traffic and high construction costs. The Canada Line was completed on time and within budget, with private financing and operation transferring construction and ridership risks from the public sector. Both projects demonstrate the potential benefits and challenges of the PPP model for major transportation infrastructure.
Municipal Solid Waste and its Management (A Study on Varanasi City)ijtsrd
The main aim of this research is to find out the status of municipal solid waste generation and its composition along with the relationship of economic condition of different inhabitants with per capita of waste composition in Varanasi, the most crowded city in the state of Uttar Pradesh, India. Municipal Solid waste (MSW) is a heterogeneous in composition and varied from place to place. Increasing population levels as well as rapid economic growth and rise in living standard of people speeded the generation rate of municipal solid waste in metropolitan cities of India. The objective of this paper is to providing an insight of the stages of waste management i.e. Prevention, Minimization, Recycle, Reuse, Energy recovery, Disposal and its composition and amount in order to improve the current solid waste management practice of Varanasi municipality and also to provides a further insight of feasibility and aids of adopting segregation at source and decentralization of solid waste management in order to provide better future. Research data is gathered from preliminary field investigation, questionnaire survey and face to face interview which show that with population of around 11,98,491[1]waste generated is 593TPD which comprises of food waste (29.6%), followed by plastic (18%), paper & cardboard (12.8%), textile (8.5%), rubber & leather ( 5.7% ), bulk waste ( 9.6%) metal (2.8%) other (5.7%). Since about 15% ( nearly 80 ton ) of compost is produced from an average of 500-600 metric ton which is sold at Rs.1,000 per ton if decentralization and segregation of waste at its generation point is done effectively it would be sold at Rs.415 per ton result in better standard of living society . out of 593 TPD waste only nearly 350 TPD which would lead to dispose much less amount then current scenario as a result reduction in GHGs emission and lead to creation of safe environment. Thus on the basis of above research we can conclude that solid waste management and recycling a major issue of Varanasi district and with proper segregation and decentralization of solid waste we can reuse and recycle various kind of waste depending upon nature of waste. As a result less amount of waste need to be disposed which further lead to reduction of greenhouse gas emission and thus would help to lower down carbon footprint.

In historic time social factors around the spatial existing framework generated development of the city. What we see today is contradictory as economic factors govern the growth of the city. Speed of transformation is noticeably high, while the growth of the city majors in a quantity of physical infrastructural development rather than the quality of public life. Ironically, when we look at a newly planned city like Navi Mumbai infrastructural needs sometimes are becoming the reason for the creation of urban voids in the city fabric. This paper is going to focus on Infrastructural linear voids which are cutting the morphology of the city. Urban Infrastructural voids in Kharghar are identified and typologies are formulated by observational study. This paper investigates if we can utilize these Infrastructural urban voids holistically to formulate a network of public spaces to bind the city holistically.

Using ppps on projects that involve significant changes during the term - DLA...John Smith
Overview:
Using PPPs on projects that will involve significant changes during the term
• Many recent rail projects were delivered as PPPs
• In each case extensions were contemplated
• But the PPP model is known to be inflexible
• So, why was the PPP model used?
• What challenges did the PPP model create?
• Solutions
• Questions
Nairobi Expressway project in Kenya is an infrastructure investment project that will have inclusion issues during the construction and operation phases of the project. This digital artifact highlights how applying the Quality Infrastructure Investment (QII) Principle 5 on Integrating Social Considerations in Infrastructure Investments facilitates resolution of emerging inclusion issues.

Operation Bridgeguard, or Bridgeguard 3 (BG3), is the National Rail assessment and strengthening/reconstruction (or permanent mitigation) programme for public road-over-rail ‘overline’ bridges. This was instigated by the UK Government’s reaction
to adopting the European Council Directive 85/3/EEC12 , under the European Union (EU), that Member States must accept articulated vehicles and drawbar-trailer combinations with 5 or more axles weighting up to 40 Tonnes (T – Metric) for international journeys on UK roads by 1st January 1999.
Paul will take us through how the code is being implemented and the risk management associated with a risk-based approach. He will explore what we have learnt to date, where the areas of concerns are and how we need to manage this with the political needs of a local authority. Learn how the risk-based approach is managed with the differing needs and objectives of the assets, and the way we can innovate to ensure that we reduce the risk.

Presented by Audrey Mwala, Malawi
6. Construction challenges
• complex design
• multi levels for various transport requirements
• dual tunnels located at a depth of between 40 to
50 metres underground
• complex tunnelling in urban areas
• constantly changing dynamics due to:
– ground conditions and
– customer requirements.
• Encountered significant cost and time overruns,
• The cost was borne by the contractors.

7. Operations-Brisbane
Airport link
• Was opened in July 2012
• An average of 47,802 vehicles using
the Link each day,
• About half of the original forecasts
daily traffic of 90,000 vehicles.
• Traffic figures falling even when the
ride was free.
•

8. Marketing Incentives
• Extensive marketing
• Phased-in toll regime
• An initial toll free period which ended
in October 2012
• Discounted tolls of $2 and $2.50.
2/26/2016

9. Challenges
• Higher cost of funds GFC 2008
• Building costs blew out - Leighton Holdings
posted a yearly loss of more than $200 m
• Overblown traffic forecasts -47,802 vehicles vs
original forecasts of 90,000 vehicles.
• Dropping traffic
• Debt higher than project value, more than $3 b
• Debt compared to toll revenue was
unsustainable.
2/26/2016 9
Brisbane Airport Link Tunnel Case Study,
Presented by Audrey Mwala, Malawi
10. Why low traffic
• Drivers in Brisbane simply don’t like tolls
• Not enough drivers saw the benefit in saving time
• Seen as a privilege not a need to use the Tunnel.
• People drive less, there is a decline in vehicle km
travelled by Australians per person recently
• Young people get their licences later than before
• Telecommuting
• E-shopping

11. Efforts made to save the company
• BrisConnections board entered
negotiations in November to restructure
the debt
• Lenders were not prepared to support any
of the restructure proposals.
• Government ruled out any taxpayer
funded bail-out.
2/26/2016 11
Brisbane Airport Link Tunnel Case Study,
Presented by Audrey Mwala, Malawi
12. Result
• A trading halt in November when BrisConnections’
board entered into negotiations restructure the debt
• BrisConnections went into voluntary administration
• Its lenders decided to put the Airport Link Tunnel's
operator into receivership.
• Investors took quite a haircut.
• The tunnel continued to operate as normal
2/26/2016 12
Brisbane Airport Link Tunnel Case Study,
Presented by Audrey Mwala, Malawi
13. Possible solutions
• Refinance their debt
• Government waiver of penalties
(liquidated damages)
• Contract renegotiation
• Waivers
• A taxpayer funded bail-out.
2/26/2016 13
Brisbane Airport Link Tunnel Case Study,
Presented by Audrey Mwala, Malawi
14. Lessons learnt
• The project vehicle failed but Queensland got a brand new
asset that will continue to support Brisbane’s growth into
decades ahead.
• Need for a reassessment as to how such projects get built
in the future.
– Demand risk sharing
– Independent recheck of the traffic forecast report
– Force majeure events to include genuinely unforeseen
challenges by any reasonable experts
• Be comfortable with the current worse case scenario
– Avoid assuming success based on possible future
restructuring of the finance
• Prior markets demands tests
• Continued communication on project progress with the
public especially the residents where the tunnel passed
• Government responsibility, PPP is simply an alternative not
a way out for Govt to negate their responsibility

18. Project Financing
• The project was expected to cost $2.054 billion
• Funding was provided by government and a
private partner
• Public contributions come from:
• Government of Canada: $450 million
• Government of British Columbia: $435 million
• Vancouver Airport Authority: $300 million
• TransLink: $334 million
• City of Vancouver: $29 million
• The private sector InTransitBC has invested
$750 million

19. Project Preparation and selection
• The VfM analysis found that the PPP option
offered significantly higher value for money than
public sector procurement.
• The key value factors in the winning PPP
proposal were:
– significantly lower construction costs (The PPP
construction cost savings were $85 million in net
present value. i.e. PSC $2.054b vs PPP bid $1.76b)
– similar operating and maintenance costs,
– enhanced service and
– higher projected ridership and revenue.
• The net present value of the transaction in
2003—when the deal closed—was $1.47 billion.
2/26/2016

20. Value for Money (VFM) Drivers
• This project demonstrates value for
money because of:
• Fair and competitive procurement
process
• Efficient and effective risk allocation
• The project is being delivered through a
performance-based contract
• The public benefit from
– private sector capital,
– innovation and
– efficiency as well as from
– private sector’s interest in a successful
system over the long term.
2/26/2016
Brisbane Airport Link Tunnel Case Study,
Presented by Audrey Mwala, Malawi
20
21. Risk allocation
• The private consortium assumed the
bulk of construction and operating
risks
• The regional transportation
authority bore:
– property acquisition risk
– ridership revenue risk because:
– it controls the transportation system
and
– related marketing and
– is responsible for setting fare levels
and
– integrating train and bus schedules.
2/26/2016
Brisbane Airport Link Tunnel Case Study,
Presented by Audrey Mwala, Malawi
21
22. The PPP
structure
• InTransitBC was a preferred party to design, construct, and partially finance
the system,
• It owns the train vehicles,
• It operates and maintains the Line under an operating license from the
Greater Vancouver Transportation Authority through to the end of the
agreement.
• The Greater Vancouver Transportation Authority:
– owns the line,
– collects all fare revenues
– Sets system-wide transportation policies and fare levels.
• InTransitBC was awarded a 35-year contract
• A combination of public and private monies funded construction.
• Completed several months ahead of schedule in August 2009
2/26/2016
Brisbane Airport Link Tunnel Case Study,
Presented by Audrey Mwala, Malawi
22
23. InTransitBC Remuneration
• During the construction period,
InTransitBC was paid after
achieving identified milestones.
• During the operating period,
payments are made for the
achievement of performance
targets such as:
– train frequency,
– safety, cleanliness and
– ridership.
2/26/2016
Brisbane Airport Link Tunnel Case Study,
Presented by Audrey Mwala, Malawi

24. Implementation challenges
• The PPP approach was new in the community, it generated
considerable debate at the regional government level;
• Unions made PPPs an issue, opposed private involvement in
what they believe is govt’s role
• Unions argued that the process did not allow plans to be
developed with public consultation, it limited discussion to
abstract parameters, leaving design details to private partner.
• Opponents believe it was politically motivated and that it
would cost more money because of the private involvement
• Opponents have claimed that the approval process was
undemocratic and dishonest
• Cambie Street experienced significant loss of business due to
disruptions during the construction phase i.e. One side of the
street was cut off from traffic and parking was affected
2/26/2016
Brisbane Airport Link Tunnel Case Study,
Presented by Audrey Mwala, Malawi
24
25. Performance of the Line
• Performance traffic target was
anticipated at 100,000 per day in
2013 and 142,000 boarding's per day
by 2021,
• But ridership has grown with average
of 83,000 per day in September
2009,105,000 per day in March
2010,and over 136,000 passengers
per weekday in June 2011
• During the 17 days of the 2010
Winter Olympics, the line carried an
average of 228,190 passengers per
day.

26. Benefits
• Provided protection for the public
from cost overruns and
• Provides quality rapid transit service
• Since the completion of the Canada
Line, the line has been linked to rising
property values along Cambie Street
and in Richmond.
2/26/2016

Presented by Audrey Mwala, Malawi
26
27. Critical success factors
• A robust competitive process and an
extensive evaluation process
• Procured a partner with the necessary
experience to manage the assigned risks
• Private sector innovation-
– innovative tunnel design and
– a service plan that would generate more
revenue from higher midday ridership
• Communication- the need to continue to
communicate and educate on both the
government side and the public about
PPPs
• The project cost was on budget and
ahead of schedule
