One of the greatest challenges in conceptualizing intermodal train stations is the financing aspect of these projects. The primary objective of this paper is to identify creative financing strategies and tools for the proposed train stations in Rhode Island. The focus is on public-private partnerships that would be appropriate for financing train station infrastructure and the economic development of its surrounding area. 000207821 650__ $$aProductivity Analysis 000207821 650__ $$aResearch and Development/Tech Change/Emerging Technologies 000207821 700__ $$aAtash, Farhad 000207821 700__ $$aMcCray, Talia 000207821 773__ $$d2007 000207821 8564_ $$9888ece48-5d2d-4bf0-a074-a763689873fe$$s143763$$uhttps://ageconsearch.umn.edu/record/207821/files/2007_1B_RhodeIsland_paper.pdf 000207821 887__ $$ahttp://purl.umn.edu/207821 000207821 909CO $$ooai:ageconsearch.umn.edu:207821$$pGLOBAL_SET 000207821 912__ $$nSubmitted by Lisa Vang (vang1490@umn.edu) on 2015-08-14T17:14:30Z No. of bitstreams: 1 2007_1B_RhodeIsland_paper.pdf: 143763 bytes, checksum: 8f45064f23a4d6f8846458b408e279d3 (MD5) 000207821 912__ $$nMade available in DSpace on 2015-08-14T17:14:30Z (GMT).
