The municipal government, through Emvial , has announced a new round of bidding processes for urban road network maintenance, with an investment exceeding $3.156 billion . The funds come from the Road Tax , a levy on the transportation of liquid fuels that finances road infrastructure projects. Tender Details These are two tenders whose envelopes will be opened at the end of March: Public Tender 3/2025 : For milling and resurfacing of asphalt pavements , with a budget of $2,767,283,521 . The bids will be opened on March 27 and include the intervention of 60,000 m² , distributed in two zones of 30,000 m² each.

Financing and Projection of the Road Tax This is the second year of the Road Tax , implemented by the municipal government. It applies a 3% rate to the tax-free price of liquid fuels. The revenue is transferred monthly to the municipality by service stations and used exclusively for road infrastructure improvements. According to the 2025 Budget projections , the Road Tax is estimated to generate revenues of $9 billion , representing 2.4% of the total revenues forecast by the Legal, Technical and Finance Secretariat. With this new investment, the municipality reaffirms its commitment to improving and maintaining the urban road network, ensuring a safer and more efficient infrastructure for residents and tourists. |
