📋 Tender Overview
The city of Concepcion began its transformation process with the first works of topography, planimetry and land markings for the future Costanera, a work that will benefit more than 70,000 inhabitants and will mark a before and after in the development of the departmental capital. Promoted by the Ministry of Public Works and Communications (MOPC), the proposal contemplates the expansion of the coastal defense, a drainage system, the construction of Costanera Avenue and a linear park that will allow the recovery and organization of the citys riverfront. In this initial phase, the awarded company carries out the review and adjustment of the design, a technical process that includes the verification, evaluation and updating of existing studies, both for the current stage and for future phases of execution. Coastal defense Among the main actions planned is the rehabilitation and widening of 3.9 kilometers of the coastal defense wall, through the formation of embankments with hydraulic reflux. The work will be concentrated in two sectors. The first, approximately 2.4 kilometers, extends from the oil factory located to the north on Primero de Marzo Street to the discharge of the Zanja Leon Pumping Station. The second, about 1.5 kilometers, includes the section between Coronel Martinez Street and the Desvars shipyard. Both sectors will have slope protections, containment structures and other stabilization solutions aimed at fully recovering the functionality of the coastal defense system. Park and Waterfront As part of the urban component, the construction of 2 kilometers of coastal avenue with a linear park is planned, developed on the layout of the defense wall. The park will be distributed in two segments: the first, from San Jose Street to the discharge of the Zanja Leon Pumping Station, with an approximate extension of 0.425 kilometers; and the second, from Coronel Martinez Street to the Desvars shipyard, with about 1,575 kilometers. The improvements include urban infrastructure, landscaping, trails and equipment that will allow the protection system to be integrated with the dynamics of the city, generating safe, accessible public spaces designed for citizen encounters. Likewise, the comprehensive rehabilitation of the pumping stations will be carried out, especially Station No. 1 Calaverita, in the San Jose Olero neighborhood, and Station No. 3 San Antonio, currently out of service. The improvement of Curupayty and Carlos Antonio Lopez streets is also contemplated, from its intersection with Villarrica to Coronel Martinez Street, where a pair of unidirectional circulation roads will be established to optimize connectivity in the place. The works are being carried out by the company LT S.A., winner of the contract for an amount of G. 88,809,640,992, an investment that aims to strengthen the urban infrastructure, organize the riverside and open new development opportunities for Concepcion.
