Infrastructure projects implemented in the 1990-2009 period attracted new investment of US$5.8 billion, bringing total investment commitments (hereafter, investment) to infrastructure in the region to US$6.9 billion in 2010. This level of investment is similar to the one reported in the region in 2009 (US$6.8 billion). However, private activity by number of projects is one third of the one reported in 2009 during the previous year (nine new projects in 2009).CC BY 3.0 IGOAIRAIR TRAFFICAIRPORTAIRPORT DEVELOPMENTAIRPORT EXPANSIONAIRPORTSAIRPORTS CONCESSIONASSET UTILIZATIONASSETSAUTOMATIC FARE COLLECTIONBAGGAGEBAGGAGE CHECKBIDBIDDER OFFERINGBIDSBONDBOND ISSUEBRIDGEBRIDGESCARGOCOLLECTION SYSTEMCOMMERCIAL BANKSCOMMUTERSCOMPETITIVE BIDDINGCOMPETITIVE BIDDING PROCESSCONCESSIONCONCESSION CONTRACTCONCESSION CONTRACTSCONCESSION MODELCONCESSION PROCESSCONCESSIONAIRESCONCESSIONSCONTAINER TERMINALDAILY TRAFFICDEBT GUARANTEEDEBT REPAYMENTDEVELOPING COUNTRIESDOWN PAYMENTEQUITY CONTRIBUTIONEXCESS TRAFFICEXISTING ASSETSFARE COLLECTIONFINANCIAL CLOSUREFINANCIAL CONSTRAINTSFINANCIAL CRISISGOVERNMENT INVESTMENTGOVERNMENT PAYMENTSGOVERNMENT SUBSIDIESGOVERNMENT SUBSIDYGOVERNMENT SUPPORTHEAVY VEHICLESHIGHWAYHIGHWAY CONSTRUCTIONHIGHWAY PROJECTHIGHWAYSHOLDINGHOLDINGSINCOMEINFRASTRUCTURE FINANCEINTERCHANGESINTERNATIONAL AIRPORTINTERNATIONAL COMPETITIVE BIDDINGINVESTMENT BANKINVESTMENT PROGRAMJOINT VENTUREJOINT VENTURE COMPANYLANESLEASE CONTRACTLEASE CONTRACTSLOANLOCAL ROADSMANDATEMARKET CONDITIONSMETRO RAILMETRO RAIL CORPORATIONPEDESTRIANPEDESTRIAN CROSSINGPETROL STATIONSPHYSICAL ASSETSPORT AUTHORITYPORT TERMINALSPRIVATE EQUITYPRIVATE TRANSPORTPUBLIC INFORMATIONRAILRAIL INFRASTRUCTURERAIL PASSENGERRAIL PASSENGER SERVICERAILROADRAILROADSRAILWAYRAILWAYSRETURNRETURNSROADROAD CONCESSIONROAD CONCESSIONSROAD PROJECTSROADSROADWAYROADWAYSROLLING STOCKRUNWAYSENIOR DEBTSENIOR LENDERSSHAREHOLDERSSPEEDSTATE HIGHWAYTELECOMMUNICATIONSTOLLTOLL COLLECTIONTOLL COLLECTION SYSTEMTOLL ROADTOLL ROAD CONSTRUCTIONTOLLSTRAFFIC CONGESTIONTRAFFIC RISKTRAINSTRANSPORTTRANSPORT ACTIVITYTRANSPORT INVESTMENTTRANSPORT PROJECTSTREASURYUNDERGROUNDUNDERGROUND STATIONSVEHICLEVIADUCTSWorld Bank10.1596/10878
