Bolivia's national highway administrator (ABC) awarded the construction of both sections of the Caracollo-Confital highway to Chinese company Nuclear Industry Nanjing Construction Group for a value of 1.080bn bolivianos (US$156mn).
The four-lane highway will connect Caracollo in Oruro department with Confital in Cochabamba department and works are broken into two sections: Caracollo to the department border and the border with Confital.
