Description
Description | The proposed project consists of the construction of 165.5 km of the following four national highways (including a 13.2 km long section of (a) which is already under construction and is being financed entirely by the government): (a) Padre Hurtado - Puangue (about 58.5 km); (b) San Antonio-Algarrobo (about 25.5 km); (c) Punchuncavi - La Laguna (about 14.5 km); (d) Loncomilla - Constitucion (about 67 km); and includes construction-supervision for these roads and pre-investment studies for about 500 km for a future highway construction program. Out of the four roads proposed in this project, three are located in the densely populated central zone between Santiago and the coast. The fourth road, connecting Loncomilla with the port of Constitucion further south, will serve a new cellulose plant, under construction near Constitucion and may facilitate the closure of a branch railway line which is likely to prove uneconomic. |
