P3 Bulletin roundup lists Rio bus P3 consultation, Maryland toll advisers

P3 Bulletin's latest roundup lists Rio launching a consultation on an electric bus P3, Contra Costa Transit Authority exploring a P3 for mobility hubs and Maryland seeking advisers for toll and CAV plans. The roundup gives no dates or capital values for the Rio bus consultation, the Contra Costa mobility hub work or the Maryland toll and CAV plans.

The rail item is a personnel move: a former Metrolinx chief is to join the Alto project, according to the roundup, which does not name the executive or give a start date.

The roundup’s mix of consultations, adviser mandates and contractor appointments matches the pattern this publication flagged in September: P3 machinery running ahead of priced deals. Advisory and feasibility work fills the rest of the roundup: advisers are sought for a Canadian waterfront development; consultants are wanted for a Colombia hospital P3, a Flagstaff investment roadmap and a Georgia city development brief; a contractor is on board for a Peru healthcare P3, and Jamaica has tendered an agricultural logistics hub. For the transport entries, the roundup lists no award among them.
