Whittle Chairman, Department Committee on Graduate Studies 1 BARKER Designing Transit Concession Contracts to Deal with Uncertainty By Tara Naomi Chin Blakey Submitted to the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering On May 25, 2006 in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Transportation ABSTRACT This thesis proposes a performance regime structure for public transit concession contracts, designed so incentives to the concessionaire can be effective given significant uncertainty about the future operating conditions. This is intended to aid agencies in designing regimes that will encourage continually improving performance through the use of relevant and adaptive incentives. The proposed incentives are adjusted annually based on actual circumstances. An adaptive regime can also allow the incentives to be more cost and resource efficient and is especially well-suited to so-called "gross-cost" contracts when the public agency retains the fare revenue and absorbs the revenue risk for the services. The motivation for this research is the anticipated transfer of the oversight responsibilities for the Silverlink Metro regional rail services, in outer London, from the UK Department for Transport to Transport for London.
