PANAMA CITY, Panama, May 12, 2011 –<\/strong>\u00a0The Panama Canal Authority (ACP) received six proposals from around the world for the design of the first-ever bridge on the Atlantic side of the waterway, at a public event held Tuesday in Panama.<\/p>\n

Currently, the Bridge of the Americas and the Centennial Bridge, on the Pacific side, provide the only routes for vehicles to cross the Canal.<\/p>\n

This new bridge will be the third across the Canal and the first located near the Gat\u00fan Locks, spanning the west and east sides of the city of Colon.<\/p>\n

The following proposals were presented:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
COMPANY<\/strong><\/th>\nPRICE<\/strong><\/th>\n<\/tr>\n
\u00a0TYPSA Principia<\/td>\n\u00a0USD $4,995,150<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\u00a0Ty Lin International<\/td>\n\u00a0USD $9,669,231<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

 <\/p>\n

The contract consists of both the design of a bridge made of braced concrete and the design for access roads to the bridge.<\/p>\n

The bids were solicited according to a 2006 law based on the referendum to move forward with the expansion of the Panama Canal, which requires an option for vehicular crossing over the Atlantic side of the Canal.<\/p>\n

The ACP is currently evaluating the lowest cost proposal, jointly submitted by the China Communications Construction Company and the Louis Berger Group. A contract will be awarded if it is determined that this proposal meets all project needs.<\/p>\n
