PennDOT Accepting Unsolicited Public-Private Partnership Proposals Through 2018

The PennDOT Office of Public-Private Partnerships (P3) announced that it is accepting unsolicited proposals for transportation projects from the private sector through December 31. Pennsylvania’s P3 program is responsible for financing numerous natural gas vehicle projects.

The submission period applies to PennDOT-owned projects and infrastructure. During this period, the private sector can submit proposals offering innovative ways to deliver transportation projects. Project proposals can also include more efficient models to manage existing transportation-related services and programs.

“We pride ourselves on our innovative approaches to transportation solutions,” said PennDOT Secretary Leslie S. Richards. “By accepting unsolicited P-3 proposals, we are encouraging others to propose innovative or partnership projects that they think will benefit the commonwealth and Pennsylvanians.”

Instructions on how to submit a project and information on the unsolicited proposal review process can be found on the state’s P3 website. The next unsolicited proposal period will occur in April. To learn more about P3 in Pennsylvania, including active projects, visit www.P3.pa.gov.
