Daniel Bongardt of GIZ China presented on urban transport financing challenges in China and potential solutions. Key issues include the high costs of expanding urban rail, reliance on land concessions for funding, and lack of dedicated national funding. International experiences show options like co-financing projects, public-private partnerships, and linking transport and urban planning. Workshop participants discussed increasing local funding options, scaling innovative financing, establishing a national urban transport fund, and long-term structural reforms. Recommendations include unifying responsibilities, consistent national policy guidance, and piloting new funding approaches.
This paper is purely a data compilation of Unified Metropolitan Transport Authority (UMTA) among various cities in India. It describes and compares UMTA of five different Indian cities including Hyderabad, Chennai, Indore, Pune and Jaipur. UMTA acts as an umbrella body that already co-ordinates the entire transport activities of the city are expected to cover more areas under the public transport system. This paper also studies how cities that have constituted UMTA ensures a comprehensive public transport system.

Over the years, infrastructure projects in Nigeria have been financed majorly by the Federal Government, with attendant responsibilities for operation and maintenance. In recent times however, competing priorities coupled with steady population growth has strained the amount of capital allocation by the Government available for infrastructure development. In order to meet its infrastructure needs and to catch up with developing countries in other parts of the world, this presentation identifies and proposes Public-Private Partnership (PPP) as an appropriate platform for funding infrastructure projects which would ordinarily have been funded through federal allocation using the proposed Second River Niger as a case study.
Establishing a transport authority in GautengTristan Wiggill
A presentation by Honourable Ismail Vadi (MEC: Department of Roads and Transport: Gauteng Provincial Government), at the Transport Forum SIG: "Cost Effective Public Transport Management Systems" on 12 May 2016 hosted by University of Johannesburg. The theme of the presentation was: "Establishing a Transport Authority in Gauteng"
A concession can be defined as a system through which a public authority grants specific rights to an organization (private or semi-public) to build, rehabilitate, maintain and operate an infrastructure for a given period. The BOT model (Build-Operate-Transfer) is a type of concession and should not be differentiated. Variations on the BOT include the BOOT (Build-Own-Operate-Transfer) and BOO (Build-Own-Operate). This brief addresses issues like the various concession mechanisms, the shadow toll principle and commercial & financial risks ppp’s involved in the transport sector. A section is also provided on emerging PPP telematics in transport sector.
This presentation outlines various issues associated with having sustainable urban/city transport systems in Indian Cities / Municipal Bodies and possible way forward.

Dario Hidalgo, EMBARQ’s Director of Research and Practice, presented a webinar on financing urban transport policies and programs. The webinar took place on December 10, 2013, and was part of a webinar series hosted by EMBARQ, the Clean Energy Solutions Center, and the Low Emission Development Global Partnership (LEDS GP) focused on planning and financing sustainable, low-carbon urban transportation.
Sustainable Transport Best Practices andBarry Wellar
The 2007 Fleming Lecture begins with a brief review of Canada’s progress in achieving core element standing for geographic factors in sustainable transport best practices. This part of the paper grounds sustainable transport in metropolitan regions, and then establishes the essential role of geographic factors in the sustainability of transport systems in Canada, and particularly in its metropolitan transportation systems. With that foundation in place, the paper then presents findings that reveal the extremely limited implementation of nine sustainable transport best practices in Canada’s metropolitan regions, and the consequent lack of regard for geographic factors in matters related to achieving sustainable transport practices.

Ppp for solving public transport woes in indiaAmit Jain
The public transport in most of the cities are dependent on buses, auto rikshaws, cycle rikshaws which are not able to meet the demand, prone to accidents, delays & traffic jams. The cities need to create an efficient and affordable public transport services. The private sector may be invited through PPP to develop an integrated public transport system in a city. The private sector may charge an appropriate user fee (fare) from the users and earn revenue from commercial activities like advertising, renting & leasing of commercial spaces etc to cover his capital and recurring cost.

19. Reform China Transport with New Fund
Using national funding to catalyse urban transport
• Comprehensive Mobility Plans that meet National Planning
Requirements
• Establishment Urban and Provincial Mobility Observatories for
independent data collection and monitoring
• Competitive grants for investment in public transportation that meet
CMPs
• The Fund could be funded by shifting a portion of the national fuel tax
and vehicle tax revenues
Next steps: Informal discussions to prepare an in-depth proposal followed
by establishing effective capacity building, administrative, and enforcement
mechanisms
2/4/13 Type presentation title here Page 19
20. Long March to Structural Reform
• Align administrative structures with the functional urban area so that
there will be one agency, coordinating transport policy
• Cautious de-link urban revenue from land concessions and allocate
more funding to SUT (including TDM, land value capture)
• Coordinated national urban transport program at national level as a
framework for revenue mobilization
• Establish benchmarking and performance indicators.
• Develop a reporting mechanism (that takes developmental differences
within China into account)
• Carefully allow cities to take on debt
Next steps: Institutional pilot project for funding urban transport (e.g.
bundling pilot programmes tied in with the development of a strategic plan
and experiment with local revenue generation such as property tax.
