Opinion | BY TOBY SANGER | October 31, 2016

They suggest this would attract an additional $160-billion from private institutional investors to finance large public infrastructure projects, including toll highways and bridges, high-speed rail, ports, airports, power transmission, public transit, 'smart-city,' broadband, and natural resource infrastructure.
