Each host nation follows a systematic methodol- ogy for PPP project programming and delivery. All countries decide to deliver a highway project by PPP after extensive front-end planning, although philosophical differences do exist among the nations on the justification of a PPP approach. Regardless, the programming and delivery processes used are informa- tive, particularly because they provide contrasting perspectives to consider.
A fundamental question with any PPP arrangement is the particular funding arrangement that might prevail. Given the impact that the funding mechanisms can have on the general project programming and delivery process, these are discussed first in this chapter.
