Abstract:Capital-intensive transit projects rely on strong public support and availability of funds. While the general ; public has become a strong advocate for transit systems, budget shortfalls and financial constraints are still ; resulting in delays in project delivery. In such business environment, the public sector has an opportunity to ; partner with the private sector to deliver and operate needed infrastructures. In public-private arrangements, ; the private sector typically is unwilling to accept the system ridership risk, making such projects financially ; unfeasible. However, transit projects undoubtedly create value that is not internalized by the developer. The ; completion of a transit system not only increases the values of properties in the affected area, but also ; brings incremental tax revenue to the public sector. Thus, some of this newly created value can be shared ; with the private sector to make the project financially feasible. The objective of this paper is to develop a ; method for designing externality-based option and a model for its valuation. The proposed valuation model ; is based on the concept of auctions, where the price-jump results from the introduction of the new transit ; system. The numerical example results show that externality-based option could reduce private sector risk ; and add value to the private developer, making transit project more attractive.
