Colombian private initiative awarded
Colombia's National Infrastructure Agency (ANI) has awarded the Buga - Buenaventura road public private partnership (PPP) project under a private initiative (PI) scheme.
The $1.07 billion (US$323.8 million) road has been awarded to Consorcio Estructura Plural Vía al Puerto, which submitted the unsolicited proposal for the project. The team is composed of Carlos Alberto Solarte Solarte (34%), Conconcreto (33%) and CASS Constructores (33%).
The PPP- PI road project will involve the finalization of the dual carriageway between Buga and Mediacanoa and the development of the Buenaventura bypass. The construction of the 26.5 kilometers road includes the development of 2 tunnels, 12 bridges, a 7.5 km bikeway and the operation and maintenance of the 111 km existing road for a period of 30 years. The project will be developed as follows:
- 10 km from the Sena sector in Buenaventura to Citronella
- 4.8 km from Citronella to Triana
- 4.2 km from Triana to Loboguerrero
- 7.5 km between the sector of Mediacanoa and Buga
In mid April we published the ANI approved an unsolicited proposal for “Accesos Norte de Bogotá”, a road PPP project that aims to improve the accessibility of north Bogota. Previously, we reported that ANI announced the companies competing in the tender process for the construction of the Bogotá-Girardot PPP-PI project.
