The New Terminal One at JFK’s Post

At Central Virginia Partnership for Economic Development's Annual Meeting last Friday, we had the privilege of hearing from Chris Lloyd about site selection trends. Unfortunately, Virginia is falling behind some of our neighboring states. Two key takeaways from Chris’s presentation: 1. "If you don’t have product, you won’t have prospects." 2. "Companies want to see you investing in infrastructure." About 10 years ago, I shared this video from Skanska about P3s. It offers a simple and concise explanation of how Public-Private Partnerships (P3s) work and their advantages. For me, it's about speed to market, efficiency, and moving the needle. One nearby locality has effectively leveraged Virginia’s Public-Private Education Facilities and Infrastructure Act of 2002 (PPEA), resulting in significant, dare I say transformative, business growth and investment. Not only have we had the privilege of helping make this locality’s luck, we’ve also improved and enhanced other communities by helping them to achieve their maximum potential through PPEA project delivery.  If you're interested in advancing your community and improving the speed to market of your “product,” I’d love to share how we can help. #P3 #PPEA #PPTA

Public-Private Partnership (P3) legislation in Georgia has been a game-changer over the years, creating new pathways for transportation infrastructure project delivery and financing.   The project team for the express lanes on I-285 has been conducting pre-procurement activities to determine how best to deliver the proposed I-285 East Express Lanes and I-285 West Express Lanes. The team has chosen to utilize alternative contracting methods (ACM) following State Transportation Board approval earlier this month.   We expect the use of ACMs to spur even greater competitive interest in the P3 market as we advance the multi-phase development of express lanes on I-285.   Learn more about our P3 delivery program: https://lnkd.in/gnhWu6C6   #transportation #infrastructure #P3 #expressLanes #georgia #transportationindustry

Spent yesterday representing HS2 (High Speed Two) Ltd at the Network Rail North West and Central Passenger Conference. Really good conversations about what we need to do in the short, medium and long term to deliver for customers. Thanks to James Dean for the invite Rob Bolton for the chance to speak. HS2 will add resilience and capacity to the existing railway between London and Birmingham. Lots of opportunities for using the released capacity for improved passenger services and additional freight paths. Let's make sure customers in towns and cities like Northampton hear how they will really benefit from HS2. There was also an acknowledgement that there are capacity questions that need solutions, especially north of Birmingham. A reminder that the industry needs to really focus on what we do about this in the medium term and, given how long infrastructure investment takes, the longer term.

The overall road sector capital expenditure is expected to grow by 8-13 percent in FY25. This is driven by higher execution and includes all National Highways, state roads, and rural roads. The state roads segment accounts for almost 50 percent of the overall road sector capex, whereas the SME players hold around 60 percent share in this segment. How will this growth impact SME players in the road sector? Read more in the latest #CRISILPerspective: https://lnkd.in/dDyZHayU #RoadSector #InfrastructureInvestment #CRISILSMETracker #Capex
