Official approval has been given by the Latvian Government for the Kekava bypass project. The project will be carried out under the PPP model.

Plans are now being drawn up for the project. The bypass will feature two lanes in either direction as well as a number of bridges and udnerpasses.

The Latvian Transport Ministry has yet to finalise the tender process for the project. However, this looks set to go ahead shortly. The finance package for the project will be secured also in due course.

    A road widening project worth US$134.3 million is now going ahead in Ecuador. The road connecting Aloag with Santo Domingo is being improved along a 100km stretch, widening the route so that it will feature two lanes in either direction instead of the single lane in either direction at present. This will boost the transport connection between Pichincha Province and Santo Domingo de los Tsachilas Province. The contract was originally awarded in 2015 but stalled in 2017 following a disagreement over tolling.
