Document Details:

High-Speed Rail: Public, Private or Both? Assessing the Prospects, Promise and Pitfalls of Public-Private Partnerships by Tony Dutzik and Jordan Schneider, U.S. PIRG Education Fund, 2011.

The study analyzes the experience with public-private partnerships (PPPs) in the development of high-speed rail around the world. Based on these findings it develops principles that will enable public officials to determine whether a PPP is the right way to approach a particular project, and to structure PPP agreements that protect the public interest.
