Implementation of PPP Models into Ukrainian Road Development

This article is devoted to international transport corridors in Ukraine. The problem of new motorway building can be decided thanks to concession models, such as public private partnership. Such a model has some difficult aspects of implementation. Ukraine has now stabilized economical growth 6-7% GDP. Macro-economic reforms, initiated during the mid-nineties, started to bear fruit and resulted in continuous and substantial GDP and transport growth. The country benefits from its sixth consecutive year of economic growth starting from year 2000. The forecasted annual economic growth rate presently ranges around 5%. Ukraine's transport system, inherited from former Soviet Union, still includes infrastructures, equipment and requirements which are not always up to EU standards. Recent developments show that significant gaps exist. Interoperability in transport at all levels will be an absolute necessity for Ukraine. Its integration in Pan European transport network is possible on the condition of passing ahead transport corridors, first of all, motorways. Historically railways dominated in Ukraine, but now road transport develops more dynamically and it needs new motorways.
