Sustainable project

The highway’s environmental impact is minimal, given that 70% of the route runs through a trench or tunnel. It presents no visual disruption or noise, nor does it constitute a barrier since it is virtually invisible from preexisting roads, services, canals, and wildlife areas.

The project was designed and built using the latest innovations in safety, technology, and sustainability, including Sacyr’s Iohnic lighting system and sound-absorbing, antiaquaplaning, photocatalytic asphalt (which attracts contaminating particles and, in conjunction with light, oxidizes nitrates and carbonates).

In addition, the colors of the trench walls vary according to municipality, making it easier for drivers to orient themselves. Pedemontana has transparent noise barriers so as not to reduce the visibility or illumination of the platform.

Pedemontana-Veneta (Italy)

Award-winning financing

The Pedemontana-Veneta toll road is part of the European TEN-T network. It is considered a nationally significant strategic asset on account of its location between the existing A4 and A27 toll roads, crossing the Veneto Region and passing through the provinces of Vicenza and Treviso. The construction of this toll road was financed by means of the largest bond issue in Europe for a greenfield project, to the tune of 1.571 billion euros. The issue has been awarded four international prizes.

 Rota de Santa María (Brasil)

Sacyr Concesiones, through the company Rota de Santa María, oversees the operation and improvement of a 204 km section of the RSC-287 highway since 2021. This roadway connects the southern regions of Tabaí and Santa María.

These tasks are intended to ensure the comfort, traffic fluidity and safety levels for the road users. The influence area of this infrastructure comprises 13 municipalities. Approximately 1.1 million people in the region will be positively impacted by the road.

Pamplona-Cúcuta road project: positive impact on rural Colombia

This new road infrastructure has social and environmental plans and programs that benefit more than 1,000 people in the area.

The Pamplona-Cúcuta project, developed by Concesionaria Unión Vial Río Pamplonita, from Sacyr Concesiones, is one of the critical road infrastructures for the development of Norte de Santander.

This project includes the new construction of a 50.2 km (divided and simple highway) and the rehabilitation of 72.2 km of pre-existing road between Pamplona and Betania, Los Patios.

These improvements will optimize mobility and reduce travel times as well as operating costs for users, ensuring a faster, safer, and more comfortable road corridor.

First Norte de Santander tunnel

The Pamplona tunnel is located in the section corresponding to Functional Unit 1 of the Pamplona-Cúcuta project. This tunnel is a 1,400m-long infrastructure with two directions and 924m-long emergency gallery with three access points.

Building future: our corporate volunteering program in Colombia

As part of this commitment, we have backed the integration and strengthening of the Cristo Rey district community, in Pamplona, and improved the conditions of education institutions by delivering school kits, beds and mattresses. We have also collaborated with Ayuda en Acción in a women’s empowerment program to help 45 women entrepreneurs and improve their living conditions thanks to the project.

Velindre Cancer Centre in Wales: our first P3 in the United Kingdom

This cancer center is our first P3 project in the United Kingdom, a priority market for us in our 2021-2025 Strategic Plan.

The Acorn consortium, comprising Sacyr, Kajima Partnerships and Aberdeen, will be responsible for the design, construction, financing and maintenance of the new Velindre Cancer Centre, a new leading cancer hospital that will meet the highest quality standards in terms of sustainability and innovation. 

This new center, which will have a surface area of more than 30,000 m2, is the result of the need to expand and improve the quality of care in the southeast of Wales, where it will serve 1.5 million people.  

Velindre Cancer Centre is a leading reference hospital in education, development, innovation and research into cancer, especially the less common types of cancer. 

Sustainable design 

The design of the new center will have a strong environmental and ecological character and will feature highly efficient energy systems. The infrastructure will respect the environment in which it is located, its landscape value and the protection and respect for the surrounding biodiversity as it is a protected area. 

To this end, several measures have been implemented to guarantee the preservation of existing species, such as the location and relocation of animals and plants for their conservation, and the development of research and action programs in accordance with the hibernation periods of protected species
