The Ministry of Public Works began the reopening of 27 projects that will help reactivate the economy under the “turnkey” concept.
The government, experiencing a significant fiscal contraction, succeeds in getting contractors to grant financing for the works.
The projects that will be tendered are:
• Expansion to four lanes of the road that goes from the Highway to Vacamonte Port.
• Connection of Coastal Belt III to the Amador area.
• Rehabilitation of 266 kilometers of production roads throughout the country.
These three projects add up to an investment of approximately $ 130 million, of which $ 100 million are provided with private financing, because they are “turnkey” projects.
The reactivation of the 27 infrastructure works (public and private) represents an investment of $ 2.4 billion, including the fourth bridge over the Panama Canal.
