Ferrovial, a trav\u00e9s de su filial Ferrovial Agroman<\/a>, en consorcio con American Infrastructure<\/a>, ha cerrado la financiaci\u00f3n para llevar a cabo el dise\u00f1o y construcci\u00f3n de la nueva autopista US 460 en el Estado de Virginia, que tendr\u00e1 una longitud de 55 millas (unos 88,5 kil\u00f3metros). El consorcio, que fue seleccionado en octubre por el Departamento de Transporte de Virginia<\/a>, ha firmado el contrato para la ejecuci\u00f3n de este proyecto que tiene un valor de 1.393 millones de d\u00f3lares (unos 1.070 millones de euros).<\/p>\n

\u0093La firma de este contrato es un paso m\u00e1s en la estrategia de Ferrovial de incrementar nuestra actividad en el sector de construcci\u00f3n de infraestructuras de transporte de Estados Unidos, en el que ya contamos con presencia en Texas, y ahora por primera vez en Virginia\u0094, ha declarado Alejandro de la Joya, consejero delegado de Ferrovial Agroman.<\/p>\n

Aunque se trata de una alianza p\u00fablico-privada, el consorcio liderado por Ferrovial, US 460 Mobility Partners, no aporta fondos al proyecto. No obstante, se ha encargado de levantar parte de la financiaci\u00f3n a trav\u00e9s de bonos, por valor neto de 243 millones de d\u00f3lares.<\/p>\n

US 460 Mobility Partners fue seleccionado despu\u00e9s de m\u00e1s de dos a\u00f1os de evaluaci\u00f3n por parte de las autoridades estatales. American Infrastructure es una las principales firmas de Virginia en construcci\u00f3n civil y materiales asf\u00e1lticos.<\/p>\n

Los trabajos de dise\u00f1o se llevar\u00e1n a cabo durante 2013 y la construcci\u00f3n comenzar\u00e1 en 2014, para concluir a finales de 2017. La autopista estar\u00e1 gestionada por una corporaci\u00f3n p\u00fablica creada por el Estado de Virginia. El proyecto consiste en una autopista de peaje de cuatro carriles que discurrir\u00e1 en paralelo a la actual carretera estatal 460, entre las ciudades de Petersburg y Suffolk, en el sureste de Virginia, y que conectar\u00e1 con siete carreteras. La nueva US 460 mejorar\u00e1 las comunicaciones con el Puerto de Virginia desde el interior del Estado e incrementar\u00e1 el tr\u00e1fico de mercanc\u00edas.<\/p>\n

Esta infraestructura ser\u00e1 un motor esencial para el desarrollo econ\u00f3mico en la regi\u00f3n. Seg\u00fan estudios independientes, se estima que para el a\u00f1o 2020 el proyecto tendr\u00e1 un impacto econ\u00f3mico positivo para la zona superior a los 7.300 millones de d\u00f3lares anuales y crear\u00e1 m\u00e1s de 4.000 empleos durante la construcci\u00f3n y m\u00e1s de 14.000 puestos de trabajo en el largo plazo.<\/p>\n
