• Abstract:
  The objective of this paper is to study lessons learned, to date, from the Orlando experience. Particular attention will be given to the economics of competing modes in the private and public section. That objective will entail identifying the groups who raised issues or opposed the project, an examination of the issues raised, the context in which they were raised and the means by which the Orlando project achieved consensus and overcame or failed to overcome the impediments.
