During the inauguration ceremony, President
Ricardo Martinelli thanked the citizens for their
patience during the months of construction
and expressed his satisfaction for the work
executed by FCC which culminated in the
completion of this project five months ahead
of schedule.
Victor Alberola, the chairman of FCC Cons-
trucción Central America division said that it
was very gratifying to be part of the project
that will change the lives of thousands of
Panamanians. “Today we deliver this project
which will benefit the many people who tra-
vel through this area every day. We said we
would complete it as soon as possible and
were able to fulfil this commitment”, he said.
The project generated nearly 600 direct and
indirect jobs, 95% of which were held by
Panamanians. “We want to thank each and
every employee who participated in this pro-
ject for their professionalism and enthusiasm
and also our appreciation for the community
which showed its patience while they waited
for the project to be completed, aware that it
would be to their benefit”, Alberola said. This
project is one of the main thoroughfares in the
capital city, site of the country’s principal com-
mercial establishments and banks.
Jaime Ford, the minister of Public works
highlighted that fact that “we completed this
important project, another component of
Panama’s New Road Networks which has
transformed the collapsed road network in
the capital city thereby resolving the problem
of traffic congestion”.
