TODAY IS A SYMBOL OF THE GREATER BILBAO. by Patricia Alcorta 1930s. Bilbao is overrun with shipyards, factories, labourers and engineers. Th e city is becoming an industrial hub, but outgrowing the limits of its capacity. By connecting the districts of Abando and Deusto over water, Bilbao could gain some much-needed real estate. However, the project is faced with an unprecedented problem: the river is a busy shipping channel and a permanent bridge would block cargo vessels. So Deusto introduced Spain’s fi rst bascule bridge. Entrecanales and Távora built the foundations and four years later, in 1936, the bridge was completed. It had to be constructed twice, though. Blown up in 1937, it was back up and running two years later. 08-09_ACCIONA_Historicas2_ENG.indd 9 21/2/17 13:39 NEWS NET PROFIT GROWS BY 70% 2016 FINANCIAL RESULTS GROSS MILLION INVESTMENTS: EUROS 916 MILLION, In net profit quadrupling the 2015 352 fi gure Last year’s results include an extraordinary in Infrastructure: +91.8%.

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.
