Executives of CR20 and CRCC, two of the Chinese companies that make up the consortium that will build the Salvador-Itaparica Bridge, met this Wednesday (17th) with Deputy Governor João Leão, Secretary of Economic Development, and Marcus Cavalcanti, Secretary of Infrastructure. The meeting was used to address technical and bureaucratic issues necessary for the beginning of the project.
“We are confident that we will be able to start the construction work by the end of the year. The pandemic has disrupted the schedule, but Governor Rui Costa is committed to vaccinating all the people of Bahia. Together, we will defeat the corona virus and begin this important and structuring construction for the economic growth of our state, for the creation of jobs and for the integration of development with the cities in the interior of the state”, said Leão.
“Meetings like this allow us to monitor the process before executing the project, which is also important. The people of Bahia will soon be able to follow the progress of the Salvador-Itaparica Island Bridge, which will allow the State to grow and become more developed,” stressed Marcus Cavalcanti.
