The Technical Panel for Concessions, Chile will hold a Public hearing on the discrepancy filed by the Ministry of Public Works (MOP) against the Ruta del Limarí SA Concession Company in charge of Route 43, in the Coquimbo Region. The public hearing will be on March 8, 2022.

MOP requests the Panel to issue a recommendation on the savings to be generated by the elimination of the work "Width Modification of Roadway on Route 43, Section 3, Pan de Azúcar sector". The Pan de Azúcar works involve the development of pavements, road safety, landscaping and lighting. However, due to the fact that a sewage system was to be built in the sector, this work was rejected.

MOP requests that this saving be recognized for the concessionaire and a balance in favor of the MOP of UF 416,280.59 (USD14.29 million) for the elimination of the Pan de Azúcar works, and that the optional right of the MOP be recognized to choose between two alternatives with respect to said amount: reinvest it in additional works or demand payment in cash.
