Eastern Trans-Canada Highway a good example

摘要

Much of the work to complete a vital part of the four-lane Trans-Canada highway, in New Brunswick, was carried out through two separate public/ private partnerships (P3s). The first, the Fredericton-Moncton Highway Project, is an award-winning highway that has saved dozens of lives since its opening in 2001. New Brunswick now has one of the safest, most efficient and modern highways in the world. Stretching from Nova Scotia through New Brunswick to the Quebec border, this section of the Trans-Canada Highway is the backbone of the Atlantic region's economy. It serves not only the transportation needs of New Brunswick, but is also the major east-west link between the Atlantic Provinces and the rest of Canada, and a north-south link to the United States. A total of C$7 billion worth of goods from Atlantic Canada, including $4 billion from New Brunswick alone, pass along New Brunswick highways every year.
