The tunnel value project pipeline is led by the Road
sector, accounting for approximately half of the total. When combined with Rail, the total for Transport equates to about three-quarters of the total.
LATIN AMERICA As noted above, the tunnel project value pipeline in Latin America is markedly dominated by the Transport sector (primarily Rail/Subway) with relatively little on Water & Sewage, and nationally by Colombia. In terms of stage, GlobalData says the value of the
Latin American pipeline is weighted towards projects in the later stages of development. With respect to tunnel length, as tracked by GlobalData, it adds that the Latin
American pipeline is comprised of just over 250km of tunnel projects, the largest share in Chile, followed – and in a close-tie – by Colombia and Argentina. GlobalData says Colombia records the highest value
pipeline of tunnel construction projects in Latin America, accounting for about 39% of regional project value. It adds that tunnel construction in the country will be
driven by government investment in infrastructure and the development of the new fifth-generation series of infrastructure projects. The country has one of the biggest tunnel projects in
the region – Bogota subway, which is part of a larger transport masterplan.
