    \n What We Do <\/h1>\n <\/div>\n <\/m-final-content-header>\n\n \n\n\n

    We competitively develop and efficiently manage highways and other transportation infrastructure around the world.<\/p>\n \n\n\n

    Our continuous goal is to ensure that the construction, improvement, maintenance, and management of our road infrastructures perform at the highest efficiencies on behalf of the traveling public, and with the highest level of safety and customer satisfaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    How Do We Work?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    We minimize risks in construction by partnering with our construction division, Ferrovial Construction, whereby we have an agreed cost and set timeframe. This practice guarantees the success of greenfield<\/em> projects (new construction) as they ensure a correct risk alignment between the licensee and our construction affiliate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The continuous interaction between both organizations ensures that an initial investment mix and future operation and maintenance costs are successfully achieved. This approach helps minimize the total cost of the project by establishing an optimal design for maximizing the value and quality of the service provided to the user.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Our Asset Management<\/strong><\/em> model, based on the identification of best practices and their application in all our concessions, helps us analyze the performance of each project and compare the different efficiency ratios to identify the areas that require improvement on a continuous basis.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/m-wysiwig>\n\n\n \n

    Our Highways<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n

    We have a diversified presence with complex and unique assets in stable markets with a high potential for growth.<\/p>\n \n\n\n

    Complex Projects\nwith High Value<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    We focus on complex projects that offer a high\nconcessional value, such as the 407 ETR Highway in Toronto (Canada) or Managed\nLanes in the US. Successfully managing these roads requires a deep understanding\nof user behavior; a key insight that we have obtained through our experience in\noperating similar assets. Today, about 91% of our investment are in highly\ncomplex projects.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/m-wysiwig>\n\n\n \n

    Geographical\nApproach<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Our long-term strategy of committing to asset\nmanagement is a key part of our success. To maintain this competitive advantage,\nthe markets we enter must meet a list of requirements, including legal\nsecurity, political and economic stability, and adequate prospects for economic\ngrowth. We focus on developing countries with stable financial markets that can\nenable financing procedures in local currency and \u201cProject Finance”\nstructures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Our goal is to allocate projects in growing economic environments with high potential, that are part of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), and maintain steady political and economic situations. We focus our attention on emerging markets by analyzing their evolution and potential for our investments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Innovation and\nthe Future of Roadways: Managed Lanes<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Implementing the latest technologies on toll roads, such as managed lanes with dynamic pricing, aligns our corporate strategy with an innovative model, aimed at solving society\u00b4s mobility problems and minimizing GHG emissions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Over the last few years, we have invested more than $30 million in research, development, and innovation (R&D&I) geared toward different financing methods and toll systems technologies like Satelise, an app that allows the users to pay without stopping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The future of mobility entails connected, autonomous,\nshared, and electric vehicles (CASE) and infrastructure that is adapted to each\nspecific user. For this reason, all our projects seek to improve mobility for\ncommunities and people around the world and help connected and autonomous vehicles\nbecome a reality. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/m-wysiwig>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":109244,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-109279","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nTransportation infrastructure: management and development | Cintra<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"We handle international highway construction, improvements, maintenance, and management.
