Colombia’s 2556 Ministry of Transport intends to invest a healthy US$5.59 billion in infrastructure during 2012. A substantial portion will go towards 17 road corridor projects, with major sums also aimed at road maintenance, much of which will be for road repairs following the harsh winter weather. Another project will be to improve minor roads, while a further portion of the budget is for road concessions. A total of 80km of road between Coran-San Jorge in Magdalena Medio will be completed by the end of 2012.
