EUROPEAN EXPERIENCE OF USING PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF TRANSPORT INFRASTRUCTURE IN THE CONTEXT OF ENSURING NATIONAL INTERESTS

Nataliia Bondar Vladyslav Umantsiv

The article is devoted to the study of the benefits of public-private partnerships for the implementation of transport infrastructure development projects in the context of ensuring the national interests of the country. The relevance of the study is underlined by the fact that public-private partnerships are a tool that can be used to implement not only socially significant but also strategically important projects for national security, in particular those related to the development of transport infrastructure. The purpose of the study is to examine the European experience of establishing and developing publicprivate partnerships in the context of ensuring national interests. Attention was paid to the experience of implementing transport infrastructure projects based on public-private partnerships. Changes in the political and economic environment require Ukraine to respond quickly to new challenges, including the need to intensify investment in transport infrastructure development in the face of significant budget constraints for the country and local communities. Public-private partnerships are an effective tool for implementing critical transport infrastructure projects. The authors have shown that the use of various forms of public-private partnerships opens up opportunities to ensure the implementation of a number of the most important functions of the state: economic, political, defence, law enforcement, humanitarian, public health, etc. The use of public-private partnerships for the implementation of transport infrastructure projects can improve territorial transport links, increase transport accessibility for the population, increase business activity and employment in the region, and accelerate its socio-economic development. The authors consider possible models of partnership and tools for
reconciling the interests of participants in public-private partnerships
