THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE ROAD WORKS PLAN ADVANCES
"There is going to be a very important investment for the economic reactivation that the country needs, which has to have the State as an articulator so that the works are of quality"
This was stated by the Minister of Transport and Public Works José Luis Falero and pointed out that in the remainder of this year and the next “the push will be noticed” in what has to do with the development of public works. The administration will ensure that the works have durability. "We intend to be certain that we are doing quality works, adequate to the traffic and the increase that it is going to have," he said.
The Minister reported that work is underway to launch a series of tenders and avoid extensions. In addition, it is seeking to finance a series of priority works, which will allow traffic flow, such as the double track of route 5 between Canelones and Durazno, the double track of route 9 to Chuy, the rehabilitation of route 6, as well as the extension of the double track of Route 1 to Colonia.
Crema contracts will be used that allow the works to be executed in a shorter time and to be paid for in a shorter period than the projects of public-private participation. “We are working on the projects and bidding documents. This second semester you have to tender, "he said.
