Moreover, planned investment of COP17.8 trillion ($4.3 billion) by the national infrastructure agency (ANI) towards the transport infrastructure projects in 2024 will further support growth; this includes the expansion of Rafael Núñez airport in Cartagena and the public-private partnership (PPP) for the Dorada-Chiriguaná rail corridor.
Over the remaining part of the forecast period, the construction industry is expected to record an annual average growth rate of 5.7% between 2025 and 2028, as investments attentions tailor to transport, residential, and energy. Growth will be supported by the government’s intention to invest COP101.9 trillion ($24.9 billion) during the current presidential term (ending August 2026) to develop transportation infrastructure. Investments are umbrellaed under the government’s Vision 2030 that predominately focuses on offering affordable residential housing.
