Transport Infrastructure and Development
Global experience, both theoretically and empirically analyzed, gives
valuable results regarding the positive relationship between the
provision of infrastructure
and economic and social development.
Although in the past several questions were raised about the forms of
measurement and empirical results, now it is recognized
that there is a
positive relationship, and that the presence of improvements in
infrastructure helps to explain growth differentials among regions or
countries.
The services
provided from the infrastructure complement that
relationship, concluding that improved infrastructure services depend,
among other factors, of appropriate conditions in their supply, and
both supporting improvements in productivity
and competitiveness
of
a country or region, contributing to economic growth.
In the current design, we can no longer considering the infrastructure on
one side and the other services, as it was traditionally. Is the definition
of infrastructure services which play a role in the economic and
social development.

For us, the main challenge is to align the conception, design, implementation
and monitoring and control of policies related to infrastructure and services to maximize their impact on development,
requiring the review of its policies for infrastructure services.
