Private sector operations differ from those of state enterprises or government agencies in transport project investment. The government has mechanisms to finance transport projects without financial costs, generally by setting budgets acquired from tax collection or, if necessary, from other financial sources, with special arrangements on interest rates and loan repayment periods. No concession periods are set for government projects; they can be operated indefinitely. The government is free to determine whether toll collection is required. A mechanism determines toll rates. As a private sector firm, the Company operates projects during a concession period. The Company can manage projects and earn revenues during the concession period only. References
