Inadequate transport infrastructure has been recognized as an impediment to the industrial and economic progress of any country. Governments worldwide invariably must cope with the widening gap between needed investments and available budgetary resources. They increasingly attempt to involve the private sector in the financing, design, construction, and operation of major infrastructure projects, with a view to exploit the private initiatives to implement public projects. In this context, the BOT concept is becoming a popular mode of privatization of transport infrastructure development Tiong 19901.In recent years, governments in many countries have begun privatizing transportation infrastructure sectors .Some of the forces driving this movement include a scarcity of public resources, an increase in the demand for better service and a political trend toward the deregulation of infrastructures from public monopoly.
