Overview

  • The Transport Secretariat formalized technical qualification for the 741‑km Ruta del Mercosur corridors via Resolution 71/2025, with economic offers scheduled to open Tuesday.
  • The Economy Ministry opened a national and international tender for two tracts totaling about 1,872 km: Sur–Atlántico–Acceso Sur (RN 3, 205, 206; Riccheri, Newbery, Ezeiza–Cañuelas) and Pampa (RN 5 between Luján and Santa Rosa).
  • Officials say the second phase of the Red Federal de Concesiones spans roughly 4,400 km in eight tranches across Buenos Aires, Santa Fe, Córdoba, San Luis, and La Pampa, with additional tenders to follow.
  • Seven bids were received in the first stage from firms including Autovía Construcciones, Benito Roggio e Hijos, Panedile, Obring, Coyserv, and consortium partners.
  • User advocates such as Conaduv warn of more toll plazas and higher costs for motorists and freight, alleging the contracts prioritize routine maintenance over major upgrades.
