INDUSTRY, INNOVATION AND INFRASTRUCTURE
Build resilient infrastructure, promote sustainable industrialization and foster innovation
Economic growth, social advancement and action against the climate emergency depend largely on investment in infrastructure, sustainable industrial development and technological progress. Today, about 1 billion people live more than 2 km from a roadway, 940 million live without electricity, and 663 million lack improved drinking water sources.
ACCIONA participates in the entire infrastructure construction value chain, from the identification of opportunity, design and execution, to the operation and maintenance of the constructed works, using the most advanced and innovative techniques.
Performance quality and safety are two of the criteria that maximize the company's value proposal in the development of large infrastructure projects and that differentiate it from other competitors in the construction field.
The project's features include the construction of the subway station caverns using lateral galleries, pile-driving operations used on a non-circular section, the construction of the station accesses using the traditional method of ramps in sections of up to 70 m, and a number of shafts of up to 60 m deep and 16 m in diameter in an urban area.
In addition, the interior installations and architecture were carried out simultaneously in three stations, along with their corresponding access points.
