Spanish company Telvent was last month awarded a €14.5M (US$20.2M) contract to install its Telvent SmartMobility Tunnel solution on Brazil’s El Morro Alto Tunnels.
The project marks the first step in accomplishing one of Brazil’s Department for Infrastructure and Transport, Departamento Nacional de Infra-Estrutura de Transportes (DNIT)’s highest priorities; enhancing safety and security on its road and rail infrastructures.
Telvent’s chairman and chief executive officer Manuel Sanchez said, “We are pleased to be able to collaborate with the Brazilian Transportation and Infrastructures Authority in enhancing Brazilian critical infrastructures safety and security with the aim of reducing accident rates”.
The contract allows Telvent to strengthen its position in the Brazilian market. The Company has completed numerous projects in Brazil.
