Infraestruturas de Portugal (IP) has launched the public tender for the execution of the contract for the complete rehabilitation and enhancement of traffic and safety conditions in the IP8 corridor, between Santa Margarida do Sado and Ferreira do Alentejo.
With a base price of €38 million, the company said, “This is the largest IP investment launched to date under its Recovery and Resilience Plan (PRR)”.
The public company adds that the work envisages the structural improvement of the road, along a section of approximately 22.1 kilometres, between the end of the A26 motorway, in Santa Margarida do Sado, and Ferreira do Alentejo, as part of the contract for the construction of a new bypass for Figueira dos Cavaleiros with a length of 2.9 kilometres.
