Colombian department Antioquia's authorities plan on launching a road concession tender by year-end, the department's infrastructure secretary Mauricio Restrepo told BNamericas.
The initiative is likely to involve the construction of a four-lane highway, but the official declined to reveal details of the project until its final design is ready.
Authorities are currently working with transport minister Andrés Uriel Gallego on the project's financial and technical design. Once this is defined, authorities will reveal the concession plan as they draw up the preliminary contract, Restrepo said.
The initiative is part of the national government's connectivity improvement plan, which seeks to increase multimodal connectivity in order to boost trade and tourism, optimize costs and reduce travel time.
