In Mexico an important road project is now due for completion within 18 months. The work is for the Libramiento Carretero Poniente road project in Aguascalientes State.

The construction work is being carried out by local contractor Promotora y Operadora de Infraestructura (Pinfra). The route will be managed through a 30-year concession package.

Pinfra will complete work on the route in stages, with a 21km stretch of the project due to be finished first. This will be followed by completion of a further 24km stretch of the route.

In all, the work is costing US$111.6 million.
