Argentina - Transport privatization and regulation : the next wave of challenges
Borrell, Brent | Bianco, Jose R. | Bale, Malcolm D.
This report identifies the main issues the provinces of Argentina face and the options they have in carrying out their new expanded responsibilities in the transport sector. In the process, the report draws some lessons from the national reforms in railways, roads, ports and waterways and identifies in these reforms some issues that could not be anticipated at the time the reforms were originally implemented in view of their novelty. The transport sector reforms initiated in 1989 have generally improved efficiency, quality and prices of the major services, but to ensure the sustainability of the successes achieved, the following changes would help: (1) reform provincial road management and financing; (2) reassess the role of subsidies in the sector; (3) spell out renegotiation rules for contracts; (4) streamline the oversight of concessionaires; (5) design and explicit integrated transport strategy.
