OP PORTU N ITY:
• Revenue Generation: These projects can generate
significant and predictable revenue streams for private
companies through tolls and service fees.
• Scalability: The model is scalable across regions and
can be applied to both urban and intercity
transportation networks.
• Risk Sharing: Risks are shared between the public and
private sectors, with the government often providing
guarantees or subsidies, and the private sector bringing
in efficiency and innovation.
• Steady Revenue Streams: Revenue can be generated
through user fees (e.g., water tariffs) or long-term
service contracts with municipalities, providing a stable
and predictable income for private companies.
