Project Description
The A-66 is a high-capacity arterial road which serves many of the main population centres in western Spain.

The Benavente to Zamora section is the last part of the highway to be upgraded.

The project involves the design, construction, maintenance, operation and finance of a 49 km two-lane dual carriageway between Benavente and Zamora. The new road will bypass the existing single carriageway through local villages and form the final section of the 809 km A-66 Autovía de la Plata highway, connecting Gijon, in the north, to Seville, in the south. The project will include eight new junctions, five viaducts, 34 overpasses, 14 underpasses, a service area and a maintenance depot.

Value
The project will be financed through a 30-year concession period.

Duration
The project is expected to take two years to complete.
