📋 Tender Overview
The construction work of the retaining walls is progressing in the Rosedal stream of Villa Elisa, an infrastructure that will benefit some 15,000 people by protecting homes, reducing the risk of flooding and recovering this important urban channel. Currently, the tasks are concentrated on the construction of stone walls on both banks of the stream, between progressives 100 and 400, with a physical-financial compliance of 40%, according to the established schedule. To maintain the pace of execution, crews and heavy machinery work continuously to place thick stone, a system designed to resist water pressure, stabilize slopes and prevent collapses. The project contemplates the intervention of 832 linear meters, from the confluence with the Fortin stream to Defensores del Chaco avenue. This section is highly vulnerable due to the population density of its surroundings. The channeling will allow more efficient runoff of stormwater and will safely connect the urban drainage system with the main receiving channels. In addition to reducing the risk of flooding, the initiative aims to environmentally recover the stream, improve sanitation conditions and generate new public spaces for the community. The planned actions include the elimination of clandestine landfills, the planting of native trees, the installation of protective railings and the construction of pedestrian paths that will allow residents to enjoy the place with greater safety. Investment and execution The intervention is promoted by the Ministry of Public Works and Communications (MOPC), through the Coordination of Drinking Water, Sanitation and Hydraulic Works (CAPSOH), and executed by the Emprendimientos del Sur Consortium, made up of Tecnologia del Sur S.E.A. and Nortec S.A. With an investment of more than G. 22,000 million, the work responds to a historic claim by the residents, who for decades lived with the progressive collapse of the banks of the stream and the permanent risk that the floods represented for their homes.
