Center GRAs Marina Manganaris and Narae Lee attended the 68th Annual North American Meetings of the Regional Science Association International (NARSC). The conference was held in Denver, Colorado, from November 10 –13, 2021. Marina presented the Center’s project on the Relative Performance of Public-Private Partnerships and Conventional Project Delivery During Crises at the conference.
The project focused on how crisis can dramatically alter the conditions under which transportation infrastructure projects develop and operate, how crisis can modify economic markets by reducing transportation user demand, limiting government budgets, and constraining private investors, and how crisis can influence projects differently based on the delivery type.
