In June 2015, Estructura Plural Hidalgo e Hidalgo S.A, a Colombian-Ecuadorian consortium of Hidalgo e Hidalgo Sucursal Colombia (25%), Hidalgo e Hidalgo Colombia SAS (5%), Cass Constructores & Cia SCA (35%) and Carlos Alberto Solarte Solarte (35%), was awarded the contract to finance, construct, expand, rehabilitate and operate the 75.8-km road connecting Santander de Quilichao and Popayan. The project included the improvement of the existing road, 7 variants, 4 intersections and 23 bridges. The bidding criteria was the lowest funding provided by the government.
