en.Wedoany.com Reported - Chile's Deputy Minister of Infrastructure, Nicolás Balmaceda, is pushing to triple the country's annual concession investment from the current $1 billion. With no election calendar to navigate and no signs of economic slowdown, Chile has favorable conditions to advance its infrastructure agenda. The country plans to launch tenders in the third quarter for a series of highway, urban transit, and access infrastructure projects.

Route 57 involves the Santiago-Colina-Los Andes section, an expansion and upgrade of the corridor connecting the capital region and Valparaíso, with an investment of $946 million. Route 5 involves the Collipulli-Gorbea section, a retender of a 144-kilometer stretch in the Araucanía region, with an investment of $1.13 billion. The Iquique cable car project will build a 5.7-kilometer system in Alto Hospicio, capable of transporting 2,000 passengers per hour, with an investment of $126 million.

This report lists all tender projects in Chile for the third quarter, while also examining how Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, Peru, and other countries are building private financing agendas amid more complex political and macroeconomic environments.
