Regional infrastructure and public works projects continue to advance across Latin America. In Argentina, efforts remain focused on housing and industrial development. Governor Ignacio Torres signed agreements in Chubut to co-manage industrial parks in Comodoro Rivadavia, Trelew, Puerto Madryn, and Trevelin to stimulate employment and investment. This co-administration scheme involves the province, municipalities, and business chambers, aiming to improve infrastructure, services, and the functionality of these productive hubs to support existing companies and attract new investment.

In Chaco, Governor Leandro Zdero inaugurated a new multipurpose hall at the Fátima school in Quitilipi, while housing projects continue with the construction of 20 homes in Sáenz Peña and 60 homes in Colón. Additionally, water system improvements are ongoing in Wheelwright, and SBASE has awarded contracts for complementary works at the Pueyrredón station on Line B in Buenos Aires.

Sanitation and transport infrastructure also show progress. In Peru, Minister Mauricio Arnillas inaugurated water and sewage connections for more than 480 families in Villa María del Triunfo, a project representing an investment of over S/ 96 million. In Colombia, an investment of over $157 billion is being directed toward recovering more than 30 kilometers of roads in the Cundinamarca department, with certain sections reaching 73% completion.
