It also includes the construction of a viaduct, a 770-meter tunnel, and three stations.<\/p>\n<p>The second contract refers to the construction of a new circular line measuring 3.1 kilometers, between Pra\u00e7a da Liberdade and Casa da M\u00fasica. This new Pink line involves the construction of four new stations and three ventilation shafts, as well as installing the line and catenary.<\/p>\n<p>The work to expand Porto Metro is expected to begin in the second half of this year. The Yellow line extension is to be completed in 34 months, while the construction of the Pink line is to take at most 42 months.<\/p>\n<p>These projects strengthen Ferrovial&#8217;s footprint in Portugal, a country where it has been operating for more than 30 years, having undertaken the construction of such projects as the Northern Line for Infraestruturas de Portugal, Lisbon Metro Blue line, and the Via do Infante, Portugal&#8217;s main toll road.
