Fiscal support measures have been often used to improve the financial feasibility of these projects, but also to rebalance the economics of the contracts to compensate for changes imposed by the government. This paper analyses the awarding of subordinated public participation loans (SPPLs) to ten brownfield shadow-toll motorway PPPs in Spain after additional works were imposed by the government. SPPLs are government loans, subordinated to the senior debt, that were intended to facilitate the PPP contractors the financing of the aforementioned works. This paper evaluates the financial and social impacts of the awarding of these loans to three of these projects. To that end, the SPPL repayment capacity of the PPPs and the social benefits derived from the improvement in road safety are estimated to evaluate whether the government’s decision to support these projects was justified from a social perspective. The results show that, although the government’s decision was reasonable, the design of the SPPL and its awarding conditions should be improved to guarantee the public interest. 2022-09-15T11:42:35Z 2022-09-15T11:42:35Z 2021-07 info:eu-repo/semantics/conferenceObject 978-84-18465-12-3 http://hdl.handle.net/10259/6866 10.36443/10259/6866 eng R-Evolucionando el transporte http://hdl.handle.net/10259/6490 https://doi.org/10.36443/9788418465123 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess Universidad de Burgos.
