This research examined the legal, financial, institutional and policy processes that Mexico uses to plan, finance, construct, and implement its transportation network. It documents through twelve case studies the state of the practice in planning, financing, conducting traffic and revenue studies, cost benefit analysis, and environmental assessments and reviews how right-of-way purchase occurs for multimodal transportation infrastructure projects. It was found that Mexico is aggressively targeting infrastructure development as a mechanism to improve countrywide network and modal connectivity and to redress social and economic inequality that had occurred because of the poor transportation network. The 2007 National Infrastructure Plan covers 5 years and multiple modes and will finance approximately 58% of the projects using innovative finance methods and public private partnerships.
