A construction and 30-year management contract for the
second highway in Andalusia's Regional Roads Plan.
ACCIONA has been awarded a 104.22 million euro
construction, conservation and operation contract for the
Purchena- Mediterranean Highway (A-7) stretch of the
Almanzora Highway. Construction will take 36 months and the
project is expected to create more than 2,000 jobs.
The contract, awarded by the Board of the Andalusia
Regional Government Agency of Public Works, is part of the
Regional Civil Works and Housing Department's
investment plan and is being carried out as a Public
Private joint venture. The award includes a 30-year
conservation, maintenance and operation concession period
as of the highway's entry into service.
The stretch awarded to ACCIONA comprises 40.76 kilometers
and an additional 0.7km branch connecting the highway to
the Albox-Almanzora Highway industrial park, giving local
municipalities access to the Mediterranean Highway at
Huércal-Overa. The highway will bring direct benefits to
the local residents of 28 municipalities (more than 70,000
people). The project sets out to turn Almanzora into a
strategic road communications point between Levante
(Spain's eastern seaboard) and the northern area of
Granada and Almeria, connecting them to Western Andalusia
through the A-92 corridor.
As well as ACCIONA, this Temporary Joint Venture is made up
of Meridiam, Cintra (Ferrovial), Detea, Montealto and
Felipe Castellano.
