According to the governor of Minas Gerais, the works are extremely important for each region where they will be carried out, which includes the Minas Gerais cities of Sete Lagoas, Uberlândia, Poços de Caldas, among others.
The resources are from the National Bank for Economic and Social Development (BNDES) and the Development Company of Minas Gerais (Codemge) and the works will be carried out by the Department of Buildings and Highways of Minas Gerais (DER-MG).
There is still no forecast for the delivery of the works, however, according to Zema, because they are smaller, they can be completed during his term, which will extend until 2022.
The manager also stated that it is satisfactory to have an agenda that deals with the future, job creation and investments in Minas Gerais, highlighting the priority of saving lives, due to the pandemic, but not without leaving aside the issue of the state’s development.
