The billion-dollar funds announced for the future infrastructure projects in Romania have caught the eye of Spanish builders, who have already joined the race for winning important tenders. “Spanish companies are traditionally strong on the constructions market, mainly in the residential and civil engineering fields, and have experience with using European funds and in elaborating strategies for infrastructure development,” says Rosa Sanchez-Yebra Alonso, chief economic advisor with the Commercial Bureau within the Spanish Embassy in Bucharest. FCC Construction, the biggest Spanish constructor to have entered the local market, won together with Italian giant Astaldi, the tender to build the Basarab passage, with the work being one of the biggest municipal investments on the local market. The investment in the Basarab passage will reach some 133 million euros. Moreover, FCC Construccion is still in the race for the tender of construction projects for the Calafat-Vidin bridge, from Romania to Bulgaria.
