Colombia infrastructure and rural development

Overview

Colombia is progressing with various infrastructure and rural development initiatives. Early efforts focused on educational and agricultural expansion, including the construction of new modules at the Universidad Industrial de Santander y de la Paz (UNIPAZ) campus in Barrancabermeja and the securing of US$135 million in international funding for the ‘Colombia Sostenible’ program to support small-scale producers.

Subsequent developments have shifted toward large-scale transportation projects. Regional authorities in Córdoba and Antioquia have prioritized the Valencia-San Pedro de Urabá road connection, with bidding expected to open soon. Additionally, efforts to modernize rail transport include the presentation of bidding terms for the RegioTram del Norte (Zipaquirá Train) to international representatives, seeking expertise for the Zipaquirá-Bogotá corridor.
