Abstract
In Brazil, the improvement of the efficiency of public transport systems requires the use of Public- Private Partnerships for promoting competitiveness and delivering modern and high quality public services. Experiences from European countries have shown advantages and disadvantages of using PPP in transport projects. Lack of financing in transport infrastructure could deliver opportunities for testing this mechanism in developing countries. The main aim of this study is to understand the crucial role that legal analysis plays in developing new financing transport projects. The paper concludes with a discussion of legal issues in international experiences in the field of infrastructure concession
