The Minister of Infrastructure Announced That the Government Forecasts Investments in Works and Projects in the Sector, Creating Many Jobs

Yesterday (04/28), during the inauguration of the Port Avenue in Rio de Janeiro, Minister of Infrastructure Tarcísio Gomes de Freitas announced that the federal government expects R$ 260 billion to be invested in infrastructure works and projects by the end of next year. According to the minister, there is an estimate of creating more than 1 million jobs through concessions to the private sector.

Investments in Infrastructure Works and Job Creation

According to the Minister of Infrastructure, the government’s concession program is a significant success, as it allows for large investments and addresses the lack of resources. He emphasized that the possible investment of R$ 260 billion in infrastructure works and projects will be directed towards the transfer of assets to the private sector, which, according to the minister, will lead to greater economic repercussions in the future.

Tarcísio also states that job creation will be substantial with the funding to be made for government infrastructure works and projects. He further highlights that, with the execution of the works and projects, around 1 million jobs can be generated, both directly and indirectly.

The government’s concession projects include major highways across the country, located in various states. The Minister of Infrastructure mentions the auction of BR-153, located in the state of Tocantins, which is expected to attract R$ 14 billion. He also cites the bidding for BR-163, in the state of Pará. Tarcísio further mentions the bidding for the President Dutra Highway, and the bidding for BR-381 with BR-262, both located in the states of Minas Gerais and Espírito Santo, respectively.

The Minister of Infrastructure also informed that the government has concession plans in the port sector, including: the salt terminal in Rio Grande do Norte, a general cargo terminal in Macapá, and a wheat terminal in Mucuripe, in the state of Ceará.

The government also plans to continue the concession of airports to the private sector, starting with São Gonçalo do Amarante Airport, which will undergo a new bidding process.

Next year, Viracopos Airport in Campinas and 16 more Infraero airports will be divided into three blocks. The North block, led by Belém Airport, the Rio de Janeiro-Minas block, led by Santos Dumont Airport, and the São Paulo-Mato Grosso do Sul block, led by Congonhas Airport, said the Minister of Infrastructure.

Works for Improving Truck Access in Rio de Janeiro Inaugurated

In the presence of the Minister of Infrastructure, Tarcísio de Freitas, the Executive Secretary of MInfra, Marcelo Sampaio, and other authorities, the Port Avenue Work was inaugurated yesterday, April 28, which provides road access for trucks from Avenida Brasil to the Port of the state of Rio de Janeiro.

The infrastructure works, whose construction was carried out alongside the connector of the Rio-Niterói Bridge to the Red Line – which was inaugurated a year ago – had investments of R$ 450 million, generating about 1.5 thousand jobs, directly and indirectly. The two projects are the main ones of the current concession contract for the Bridge.
