The provincial council for Vizcaya in the Basque Country, northern Spain, has, via the company Interbiak, tendered the construction of the Ermua bypass, aimed at easing traffic on the busy N-634. The tender budget is €89.35 million and work is scheduled to start in summer 2014, with a scheduled completion date in 2017. The new road stretch is expected to be used daily by 9,000-12,000 vehicles. Part of the road will be a tunnel and part will be overground, creating two contracts in the tender.
