Infrastructure development
Economic and social improvements cannot be achieved without parallel development in infrastructure to facilitate mobility and commercial transactions.
Infrastructures for the Community
For more than one hundred years, ACCIONA has contributed to social and economic development at a national level, and continues to do so, designing and constructing basic infrastructures to enable progress and the improvement of social welfare, offering efficient, innovative and environmentally friendly construction solutions.
We bring our experience and innovation for the prosperity of society to all sectors, including:
-
Transport Infrastructures (roads, motorways, railways, ports, airports, etc.) which improve accessibility and provide structure to the territory.
-
Hydraulic work (dams, channelling, waste water treatment plants, desalination plants, etc.) directed towards the use of water resources and to the elimination and treatment of dumps.
-
Social building projects including hospital centres, care homes for the elderly, educational centres, religious centres, etc.
-
Culture and leisure buildings (museums, conservation of historic buildings, theme parks, hotels, sports centres, etc).
-
Residential and industrial buildings such as factories and infrastructures for industrial processes.
Public- Private Co-operation: new financing formula
The World Summit for Sustainable Development has established public and private co-operation as a powerful instrument for accelerating the achievement of sustainable development. In this way social demand is not hindered by restrictive public expenditure programmes.
This approach, successfully used in other countries in Northern Europe, especially in the United Kingdom, is one of the main alternatives for the future.
At ACCIONA we have already developed projects using this formula and we see it as one of the opportunities for sustainable growth in the forthcoming years. Our contribution to this is in multiple sectors:
- Road transport infrastructures in Spain (Radial R-2, Autovía de los Viñedos, Ruta de los Pantanos, M-45) and metropolitan railways in Barcelona (Baix Llobregat and Besós) and Madrid (Metro line 9 and the Parla Tramline).
- Road transport infrastructures abroad: Chile, Brazil and Andorra.
- Infrastructures for integral water management, which include the construction, start-up and operation of waste water treatment plants, desalination plants and water distribution networks.
- Health infrastructures such as the Hospital Infanta Sofía (Madrid).
- Car parks with more than 15,000 parking places in 27 car parks around Spain.
