ACCIONA, as part of the consortium was awarded the construction and maintenance for 29 years of The Fargo-Moorhead river diversion channel, a 48km long channel between Fargo (North Dakota) and Moorhead (Minnesota). The $1.14 billion project will divert the floods of the Red River away from population centres, which are regularly affected by flooding, protecting 235,000 people from its catastrophic effects.
This complex engineering project has an estimated construction timeframe of five years, and marks ACCIONA's entry into the concessions and construction markets in the US, where it is already present in the water and energy businesses.
ACCIONA has participated in the design and construction of more than 40 airport projects and is one of the leading global providers of airport services, offering handling, cleaning, maintenance, ambulance operation and reduced mobility assistance. ACCIONA has implemented the latest technologies in airport and aircraft assistance, which facilitate process control and increase productivity.
+ 40 airport projects
