Innovative Techniques in Planning and Finance of Public Transportation Projects: Lessons Learned and its Applications Ildefonso Burgos-Gil, PE, MCE General Manager for Mass Transit Development, Puerto Rico Highway and Transportation Authority, San Juan, PR, USA, [email protected] Abstract The International Transit Studies Program (ITSP) conducts two study missions each year to provide transit managers from across the United States the opportunity to examine public transportation practices in other countries and regions, with the goal of encouraging innovation domestically. The program is sponsored by the Transit Cooperative Research Program (TCRP), funded by the Federal Transit Administration, and managed by the Eno Transportation Foundation. The subject for the 2005 Fall Study Mission was Innovative Techniques in Planning and Finance of Public Transportation Projects. The mission studied systems in Barcelona, Spain; Copenhagen, Denmark; Shanghai, China; and Osaka, Japan. As a participant, the author had the opportunity to meet with the managers for the different systems and learn and document the experience. This paper presents a more detailed insight on the author’s assigned studied systems in Barcelona, the way it has been integrated to become an effective transit system, its financial model, the lessons learned and its possible applications in Puerto Rico and elsewhere. Keywords integration, transit, planning, finance, public private partnership 1.

Research Institute of Applied Economics Working Paper 2018/23 1/25 pág. “When politics and lobbyism combine to promote white elephants by using PPPs” Albalate D, Bel G & Gragera A 4 WEBSITE: www.ub.edu/irea/ • CONTACT: [email protected] The Research Institute of Applied Economics (IREA) in Barcelona was founded in 2005, as a research institute in applied economics. Three consolidated research groups make up the institute: AQR, RISK and GiM, and a large number of members are involved in the Institute. IREA focuses on four priority lines of investigation: (i) the quantitative study of regional and urban economic activity and analysis of regional and local economic policies, (ii) study of public economic activity in markets, particularly in the fields of empirical evaluation of privatization, the regulation and competition in the markets of public services using state of industrial economy, (iii) risk analysis in finance and insurance, and (iv) the development of micro and macro econometrics applied for the analysis of economic activity, particularly for quantitative evaluation of public policies. IREA Working Papers often represent preliminary work and are circulated to encourage discussion. Citation of such a paper should account for its provisional character. For that reason, IREA Working Papers may not be reproduced or distributed without the written consent of the author. A revised version may be available directly from the author. Any opinions expressed here are those of the author(s) and not those of IREA. Research published in this series may include views on policy, but the institute itself takes no institutional policy positions.

    Anuario Jurídico y Económico Escurialense, XLV (2012) 119-132 / ISSN: 1133-3677 Medidas adoptadas en los últimos años para la introducción de la competencia en el transporte ferroviario de mercancías y efectos sobre el sector Antonio J. ALONSO TIMÓN Real Centro Universitario “Escorial-María Cristina” San Lorenzo del Escorial Resumen: La liberalización del sector ferroviario de mercancías está resultando un proceso lento y costoso no sólo en nuestro país sino en el conjunto de los países europeos. No obstante, en los últimos meses se han adoptado importantes decisiones estratégicas que redundarán en un impulso notable para la consecución de los objetivos que sobre esta política se marcaron hace tiempo desde el ámbito del Derecho Comunitario Europeo con la aprobación de las Directivas integrantes de los tres paquetes ferroviarios. Dicho objetivo consiste en elevar sustancialmente el volumen de las mercancías desplazadas por ferrocarril en el conjunto de los países miembros como medio de transporte más ecológico, eficiente y conveniente para descongestionar el transporte de mercancías por carretera sin que ello suponga la desaparición de éste sino su complementariedad mediante una ecuación de sinergias a través de la intermodalidad. Abstract: The deregulation of the European Railway Merchandise Transport is taking a big effort not only in Spain but in all the European Countries members of the European Union. However, in the last months the different European Goverments are implementing important decisions in order to accelerate the slowly deregulation process in this sector to get the goals marked in the European Union Policy for the European Raliway Merchandise Transport. The main goal of this policy is to increase considerably the ratio of merchandise moved by rail in all the countries members as a mean of transport more ecological, more efficient and convenient to clear the road merchandise transport without meaning the disappearance of it but its complement by the way of creating a deep synergy through intermodality.
