The Build America Bureau, in cooperation with the Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA) Center for Innovative Finance Support, has released a discussion paper on Case Studies of Handback Experience with Public-Private Partnerships.  This discussion paper analyzes the handback experience in three highway P3 projects: East-Link Bridge in Dublin, Ireland, Highway 4 (VT4 Järvenpää-Lahti) in Finland and M4 Tollway in New South Wales, Australia. Two of the projects did not have any material handback clauses in their P3 contracts. Still, the handback processes and outcomes of all three projects are considered successful. The projects experienced a relatively smooth handback process, mainly due to very good working relationships between the contracting authority and the P3 concessionaire.  The paper is available at: https://www.fhwa.dot.gov/ipd/p3/toolkit/publications/all_phases.aspx

This discussion paper is part of a P3 Toolkit consisting of tools and guidance documents to assist in educating transportation professionals as well as public sector policymakers and legislative and executive staff. The full toolkit is available at:  https://www.fhwa.dot.gov/ipd/p3/toolkit/

The Build America Bureau and FHWA also invite you to a webinar on Thursday, January 25, 2018 from 2:00pm to 3:00pm Eastern.  Marcel Ham of IMG Rebel and Qingbin Cui of the University of Maryland will provide an overview of the paper.
