Abstract
In Mexico, available public investment resources for large-scale road infrastructure projects are not sufficient to develop the road projects that are needed to improve, modernize, and extend the country’s road network. During the first decade of the current century, new PPP models were designed and implemented to allow private resources to participate in the construction, operation, and maintenance of roads. These models have included concessions, availability-based payment models, privatization of existing roads, and long-term maintenance contracts, and they allowed the development and completion of more than 30 projects during the last decade.
This chapter focusses on the characteristics of PPP models that were applied to road projects during the period 2003–2018 and presents examples that illustrate how the most common risks were handled in specific projects. The final sections discuss future areas of opportunity and lessons learned throughout the various stages of the program and from the many different projects that were developed.
