abstract: Provision of infrastructure such as waterways is always a contested topic in public discourse. Today more projects are conducted under public-private partnerships. Such a collaboration is considered more efficient and qualitative in project execution, but is it the better way of managing infrastructure? The upcoming research aims to understand the advantages and disadvantages of such private involvement and how they are rooted in the institutional design of infrastructure planning regimes. Commencing from a conventional planning process of a navigation lock in Scharnebeck, the research project will conceptualize a PPP provision model in the German waterway planning regime through a comparative case study. Based on expert interviews, the findings will suggest a more open discourse towards private involvement, but only if distinct points of considerations related to the external environment, risk allocation, control function of authorities as well as the stakeholder complexity are considered more thoroughly in the planning processes.
