Over a six-year time horizon, the company will carry out tasks to adapt and improve the road's trafficability, paving, bridge maintenance, emergency care and repair services, and vehicle weight control, as its main activities.
Aldesa has been awarded the contract for the management, improvement and maintenance of 380 kilometers of Highway Corridor No. 41 as it passes through the department of Moquegua, in the south of the country, for 518 million Peruvian soles (US$ 134.9 million), the Spanish company reported in a statement.
The company has won two contracts under the Proregion Plan, promoted by the Ministry of Transport and Communications through its operating unit, Provías Descentralizado.
This program aims to establish a highly competitive regional freight transport system between agricultural production centers and the logistics corridors of the main cities and ports of Peru.
Specifically, Aldesa has been awarded the Road Contract No. 41 Sector A (for US$ 66.2 million) and the Road Contract No. 41 Sector B (for US$ 68.6 million), for the management, improvement and maintenance of two sections of 189 and 191 kilometers in length, respectively.
Over a six-year time horizon, the company will carry out tasks to adapt and improve the road's trafficability, paving, bridge maintenance, emergency care and repair services, and vehicle weight control, as its main activities.
More than 7,000 residents in the area are expected to benefit from these actions, as they will substantially improve road safety and reduce transport times and costs, the company said.
With more than 50 years of experience in the infrastructure sector, Aldesa adds two new contracts to its portfolio in Latin America.
These include the operation and maintenance of the Tuxtla Gutiérrez-San Cristóbal de las Casas (46.5 kilometers) and Arriaga-Ocozocoautla (93 kilometers) toll highways in Chiapas, Mexico; the operation and maintenance of toll systems and intelligent systems and customer service for 195 kilometers of Route 5 Talca-Chillán, in Chile; and the construction of the Pardo 200 Building, a complex of two 17-story towers located in the heart of the Miraflores district in Lima, Peru, which is still under construction.
