Also, from boots on the ground in North Texas, parts of NTTA-proposed systems were won by Cintra Concesiones de Infraestructuras de Transporte in the early 2000s. Parts have been built, but it didn't complete by its 2015 target date. https://journalrecord.com/2004/12/spanish-firm-to-build-6-billion-private-texas-toll-road/ https://journalrecord.com/2004/12/spanish-firm-to-build-6-bi...

- infecto 3y agoI drive on Texas toll roads quite often. I don't follow how they take the tax revenue away. While there definitely has been failed projects but I am curious if this method of infrarstructure takes money out of the tax coffers? A private business foots a massive infrarstructure bill with its own risks with and turns over the road after N number of years. Has anyone run the math to see if these projects are net winners/losers for the state?
