Objectives:• Efficient use of public finances on large scale projects,• Private sector investment (build & operate public infrastructure & services) • Use private sector expertise to provide ‘improved’ services.
Beijing Metro Line 4
Background:• Rapid growth of Beijing area & population – Recognised need to provide
mass public transport around city
The Plan: • Beijing Rail Network Programme (2004-15):
• 260 Kms, Total Investment 100bn RMB (£10bn)• Includes Line 4 Project:
• 28 Kms, Total investment 15.3bn RMB (£1.5bn)
Problem: “fiscal restrictions stopped development of Beijing transit network” (Chang, 2013)
Proposed solution for Line 4 Project: • Government to set up Joint Venture Company, to finance & build the metro
line (PPP)• JVC to then operate the metro line on a 30 Year lease & make profit to
repay the initial investment
Beijing Metro Line 4 – The Collaboration
JVC Partners:• MTR Corporation Limited (49%): Private Partner - design, construction & operation of rail
systems• Beijing Capital Group Limited (49%): Public Partner (State owned Enterprise) – infrastructure
investor (urban mass transit systems)• Beijing Infrastructure Investment Co., Ltd. (2% - golden share): Public Partner (SoE) – financing
Why MTR?extensive international railknowledge & experience –
London, Stockholm, Melbourne
Beijing Metro Line 4 – what were the outcomes?
Benefits• Government:
• Reduced public investment • Changed role (service provider to regulator)• Access to skills and knowledge of overseas partner
• MTR Private Partner provided:• Effective project management (command and control)• Efficient development and operation (est. 9.4% savings below budget
over project life cycle)
Risks• MTR only involved after construction had commenced – optimal
configuration?• Government assured ticket fares to the public – “same network, same price”
• Ongoing subsidy paid to MTR to compensate for impact on its anticipated revenues
