The Effect of Public-Private Partnerships and Non-Traditional Procurement Processes on Highway Planning, Environmental Review, and Collaborative Decision Making (*SHRP 2 Prepublication Report)

Greetings!

 

Public-private partnerships (P3s) are contractual agreements between public agencies and private entities that allow for greater private-sector responsibility in the design, delivery, financing, operation, and maintenance of transportation improvements as compared to traditional design-bid-build procurements. SHRP 2 Project C12 (The Effect of Public-Private Partnerships and Non-Traditional Procurement Processes on Highway Planning, Environmental Review, and Collaborative Decision Making) assessed the interplay between the use of P3s and the transportation and environmental planning processes in order to identify how and when P3s are best considered as a means to procure transportation improvements. The final report documents these activities.
