ACCIONA wins highway construction in northern Peru
11 October 2021
The Autopista del Norte S.A.C. concessionaire has awarded ACCIONA, in consortium with Ferrovial, the construction of the second Vía de Evitamiento Chimbote (VECH) highway section, located in the Ancash region, 430 kilometers north of Lima (Peru).
The contract, valued at US$116 million (€100 million), includes the construction of 29.7 kilometers of double-lane highway, three traffic circles, eight overpasses, auxiliary roads and the replacement of irrigation systems. Construction will be executed over 24 months.
The project, which is part of the Red Vial 04 concession, will help reduce traffic congestion in the city of Chimbote, located in the north of the country, reducing travel times by 30 to 45 minutes.
The completion of this highway will also improve road safety and air quality in downtown Chimbote, by preventing vehicles from entering the city center when traveling north or south of the city.
ACCIONA is also working alongside Ferrovial in Peru, as part of the Wayra International Consortium, in the construction of the control tower at Lima International Airport, which will come into operation next year.
