Transforming the metropolis of São Paulo
The impending Olympic Games in Brazil are transforming the metropolis of Sao Paulo, with marked effects on the city's road network. In the southern part of the city, the “Chucri Zaidan” urban plan includes various real estate developments, as well as infrastructural projects providing roadway, environmental, and social improvements. As part of this plan, two new bridges – Laguna and Itapaiuna – were built in the district of Marginal Pinheiros, and ULMA took part in both projects. With an investment of R$305 million, the bridges will greatly ease traffic both to and from this historically congested area.
