Cross-Sector Infrastructure Co-deployment: Closing Digital Connectivity Gaps through Collaboration and Sharing
Arndt Husar, Yoonee Jeong, John Garrity · 2023
Infrastructure co-deployment between sectors is an effective and proven strategy to expand infrastructure service coverage and reduce the costs of deployment. However, in practice, suboptimal levels of infrastructure co-deployment exist because of various market, institutional, and regulatory barriers. This Asian Development Bank Sustainable Development Working Paper details the tools for gauging the potential beneficial impacts of co-deployment, highlights recent examples and good practices, and presents recommendations for multilateral development banks to consider in their own infrastructure projects and for providing guidance and direction to governments.
