Risks

  • Execution risks inherent in large-scale infrastructure projects, including potential delays or cost overruns, could impact project timelines and profitability for Parsons.
  • Dependence on public-private partnership structures subjects project outcomes to governmental and regulatory approvals and changes, which could create uncertainties.
  • Traffic and revenue projections tied to dynamically priced express lanes could be affected by economic conditions and commuter behavior, impacting long-term project success.
