Budgeted at R$ 5.34 billion, with an injection of R$ 1.51 billion from the state government, the development plan aims to stimulate nine sectors: education, health, public safety, logistics, shipbuilding, tourism, agriculture, commerce, and civil construction.
In 30 years, the expectation is that the growth of these activities will create 100,000 new jobs.
The Salvador-Island of Itaparica Bridge will be the second largest in Latin America and will rank 23rd in the world for bridges.
Interested Parties
In June of this year, technical details of the project were presented at the headquarters of the Secretariat for Economic Development (SDE) in Salvador to Chinese, Italian, Spanish, and French representatives.
The companies represented at the event included Acciona (Spain), CCCC and Concremat (China), CREC (China), Hydros Engenharia (Brazil), Salini Impregilo (Italy), OAS (Brazil), and Vinci (France). In addition to banks BNB, BNDES, BOCOM, Haitong, CCB, and CDB, and a representative from the Italian Consulate.
The Bahia government indicated in March that it expected to hold the auction in September at the São Paulo Stock Exchange for the selection of the company that will construct and operate the bridge for 30 years.
“By the end of November, we will hold the auction at the São Paulo Stock Exchange,” said Governor Rui Costa during a social media broadcast last night.
History
The debate over the construction of the Salvador-Island of Itaparica Bridge and the need for integration of the flow of goods, services, and people between Salvador, Recôncavo, and the Island is not recent.
In 1967, architect Sérgio Bernardes proposed a solution within the Master Plan of the Aratu Industrial Center (CIA), which created a road ring with three types of layouts: two for heavy vehicle traffic, and the bridge connecting the capital and Itaparica.
Although some works were completed, such as BR-324 and BA-001, the bridge to cross the Baía de Todos-os-Santos had not left the public archives until the leftist government of Jaques Wagner decided to leverage structural works.
The public tender notice and its attachments will be available starting on the 23rd on the website of the State Secretariat for Infrastructure (Seinfra) at www.infraestrutura.ba.gov.br, in the Notices menu. Interested parties can obtain information through the email pontesalvadoritaparica@infra.ba.gov.br and by calling (71) 3115-2174.
