P3s are perfect for roads, bridges and rail transit infrastructure where the routes and specs are planned by the client (the city) and it is really just a matter of building them to spec.

Where I don't agree with P3s is for actual buildings (schools, hospitals etc) as I find that the process stifles the architectural process and you end up with some pretty bland buildings as a result.
