Railway

Open call for bids, deadline 10th April, 2006 for project design, executive design and construction of a 7.09 km tunnel to place underground the Caballito-Liniers section and eliminate 31 level crossings between Liniers and Moreno. The project implies the construction of a 4-track tunnel for double-decker coaches. Refurbishment of the four existing stations in Caballito, Flores, Floresta and Villa Luro is also planned, rebuilding them below ground with a central platform between each pair of tracks to the same destination. The project is estimated to cost USD420 million, plus UDS175 million for the double-decker trains. The Sarmiento line is operated through a concession by Trenes de Buenos Aires (TBA) but the federal government will finance USD110 million and the winning company USD300 million. The award of the contract is scheduled for 1st September, 2006. Work will last three years. Visit www.boletinoficial.gov.ar/versionlibre/anexos/anexo-res82-09032006.pdf 11/06.The deadline to prequalify for the project design, executive design and construction with financing of a 7.09 km tunnel to place underground the Caballito-Liniers section and eliminate 31 level crossings between Liniers and Moreno on the Sarmiento line in Buenos Aires has been extended to 10th May, 2006. Click ar/22 for more info and visit www.transporte.gov.ar/licitaciones/sarmiento/prorroga_soterramiento.pdf 15/06.Three consortia have prequalified for placing underground the Sarmiento line. The three groups are: a consortium including Iecsa (Argentina), Odebrecht of Brazil, Comsa of Spain and Ghella of Italy; a group formed by Spain's Isolux Corsan and Esuco of Argentina; and Argentinian contractor Roggio. Bids will have to be submitted for 23rd August at the latest. The project is budgeted at USD400 million. Click ar/22. 23/06.The two prequalified consortia after assessment of the technical and financial offers for the first stage of the undergrounding of the Sarmiento line are as follows: Iecsa teaming up with Comsa, Odebrecht and Ghella on one side and Isolux Corsí¡n in partnership with Esuco on the other. This bidding process relates to engineering, executive design, construction and financing to place underground the Sarmiento railway line between Caballito and Moreno, including stage I Caballito-Liniers (Ciudadela), stage II Liniers (Ciudadela)-Castelar and stage III Castelar-Moreno. A TBM will be used. The project consists of a 7.1 km tunnel, approx. 11 m in diameter, running under the existing railway route. The tunnel will lie at an average depth of 22 metres to avoid obstacles like sewer mains, rain water and potable water pipes and other utilities or the relocation of public utilities. It will also minimise disruptions and reduce construction times. The tunnel will be bored in three subsequent stages: firstly the section between Caballito and Ciudadela stations, secondly from Ramos Mejía to Castelar and thirdly from Ituzaingí³ to Moreno. All the stations on the path will be constructed underground. The new line will allow trains every three minutes, thus increasing significantly passenger capacity and providing more comfortable double-decker carriages. 40/07.The first stage to bury the Sarmiento line between Caballito and Moreno has been commissioned to the Nuevo Sarmiento consortium, formed by the Argentine firm Iecsa, Brazil's Odebrecht, Comsa of Spain and Italy's Ghella, who submitted the low bid. The first section from Caballito to Ciudadela will take 36 months and cost ARS3,367 million. The Ministry of economy has now 60 days to prepare the contract and 10 more days to sign it. The first phase envisions the construction of 9,200 metres of tunnel, the ramps, six stations (Caballito, Flores, Floresta, Villa Luro, Liniers and Ciudadela) and a maintenance workshop. The tunnel will be 11 m in diameter and will be driven by a TBM. The new two-level underground stations will be 225 m long, 25 m wide and 22 m deep.Some 9.7 million passengers travel on the Sarmiento line per month and 370,000 per working day. The tunnel will increase ridership by 40%. The first phase forms part of a larger scheme to build 32.6 kilometres of tunnel under the existing tracks, between Caballito and Moreno, worth a total of ARS10,610 million. The second stage includes the construction of 9,400 metres of tunnel, from Ciudadela to Castelar, and the third phase 14,100 metres up to Moreno.

Flood Mitigation

The Buenos Aires government plans to build the Maldonado Creek rainfall flood mitigation project. The creek currently flows into a rectangular conduit under Avenue Juan B. Justo. The project will alleviate flooding in Villa Crespo and Palermo. It will mainly consist of two flood relief tunnels, each featuring a 6.9 m outer diameter. The longest tunnel, 10 km long, will run under the avenue up to La Plata river. It will be connected to the current conduit in Cuenca and Honorio Pueyrredon. The second relief tunnel, 5 km long, will run under Godoy Cruz from Niceto Vega. It is also planned to build 40 km of secondary ducts to channel rain waters to the new tunnels. Both tunnels will be built using two EPB or mixshield TBMs. The project would require a USD130 million investment, financed by the World Bank. Tenders would be invited by year end and a contract award is expected for September 2005. Construction will take four years. More details on the TBM design directly from Ing. Ricardo Rebagliati, Subunidad de Proteccií³n contra Emergencias (SUPCE), Avenida Cí³rdoba 1261 Piso 2Â° (1055) Capital Federal. Tel./Fax +54 1148168074 / 8410 / 8411.

Argentina, Aguas Negras - ar/20

Cross-border Road

The national highway directorates of Argentina and Chile have kicked off the tender process for a feasibility study of a traffic tunnel between the two countries. The tunnel will span centre-north Chile's Region IV and Argentina's San Juan province. Six Argentine firms and six Chilean firms were invited to submit bids under a closed tender process. Offers are due next month and a winner will be selected by June. Names were not released. The tunnel would be built at the Aguas Negras border pass, 4,000 m-high in the Andes mountains, while the alternative would entail fully paving the existing road. Results should be ready by year-end. The tunnel's estimated price tag is US$30 million but the final cost will depend on a number of variables such as geotechnical details and whether the tunnel will be three, four or five km-long. If built, the tunnel will be financed on the two countries' US$400 million border crossings and integration corridors programme. The Inter-American Development Bank approved a US$200 million loan for the programme in December 2000, while the Japan Bank for International Cooperation is providing US$120 million and local counterpart funds the remainder. 18/03.According to a preliminary technical study just submitted, the 14 km tunnel between Argentina and Chile will cost over USD250 million. The idea is to finance the project via a concession. The tunnel would guarantee year-round passage between both countries. The current Aguas Negras border pass, 4,000 m-high in the Andes, is subject to closures during the winter. The tunnel is considered as a key link for pushing forward the bi-oceanic corridor between Chile's Region IV port Coquimbo and Brazilian port Porto Alegre. The project would also include an access tunnel which would be used for maintenance and act as an escape route. 23/04.China and Argentina signed on 29th June an agreement in principle for building a 13.9 km tunnel across the Andes on a visit of president Nestor Kirchner to Beijing. The tunnel, which will cross five Argentinian provinces, will be built some 800 m below the present crossing at Aguas Negras Pass in San Juan. The tunnel, which is part of the central bi-oceanic corridor between Porto Alegre in Brazil and Coquimbo in Chile, is designed to shorten considerably the distance between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans and boost Argentinian soya and fruit exports to China, permitting and all-weather link by avoiding passage through the Cristo Redendor cross-border tunnel in Mendoza between Argentina and Chile, which is sometimes closed during winter thereby crippling hundreds of trucks on both sides of the Andes. The tunnel's cost estimate reaches USD250 million and it will be constructed by China National Overseas Engineering Corp. and the Fourth Engineering Bureau at an estimated time frame of 68 months once the final agreement is signed. Click ar/20 & cl/24. 29/04.

Tenders for 14 km-long tunnel expected H2/2010 for award by bi-national committee in 2011 and completion in 4-5 years. Budget estimate EUR390 million. Key funding agreed with national development bank BNDES of Brazil. For project history visit tunnelbuilder archive ar/20. 37/10.

The governments of Argentina and Chile received 23 expressions of interest for the bi-tube 13.9 km-long Agua Negra trans-Andean road tunnel project. The companies are from Argentina, Brazil, Chile, China, Italy, Korea and other countries. The tunnel will link Argentina's San Juan province with Chile's Coquimbo region (region IV). The bilateral body Ebitan will produce a list of pre-qualifiers over the coming weeks for a tender process set to begin next year.
