Managing Public Private Partnerships in Transportation: Lessons Learned from California's SR-91

项目名称：	Managing Public Private Partnerships in Transportation: Lessons Learned from California's SR-91
摘要：	Compelled by the wide-spread fiscal stress, governments at both state and federal levels have growing interest in public-private partnerships (PPPs) for transportation projects and legislatures are moving forward to open the door to many more such arrangements. Adopting the lens of a principal-agent theorist, this research will trace the evolution of a key California PPP in transportation - the SR-91 project - and discuss the potential pitfalls and challenges that can occur from such arrangements. Through in-depth investigation of the SR-91 case, this research aims at providing lessons for both public and private managers who might at one time or another be involved with PPP agreements. Scope The proposed research will investigate a single pioneering case of PPP which has significant impact to the transportation development of California state as well as nationwide. The study is envisioned as 1) a historical documentation of the evolution of the SR-91 PPP, especially its evolution in recent years; 2) the development of lessons learned from the case that will provide guidance to future PPP transportation projects; and 3) a projection of future trend of using PPP for the development and management of transportation infrastructure and services. Methods The study will involve reviewing the literature on PPPs and transportation development in order to fully investigate the SR-91 PPP. Data collection methods include related existing documents and interviewing key players in the PPP arrangement. The analysis will employ qualitative data documentation and analysis tools. From these analyses, recommendations will be made for public as well as business managers who engage in the practice of PPP. Deliverables Findings will be presented at a conference or event sponsored by the Leonard Transportation Center or a national public management or transportation conference. Research results will also be documented in an intermediate working paper and a final manuscript submitted to a Peer Reviewed Journal (PRJ).
