The project involves the development of the detailed engineering of the specialities required for the complete enabling of a public transport corridor on Av. San Pablo, in the section between Calle Antonio Ebner to the east and the Américo Vespucio Highway to the west, over an approximate length of 8.3 km crossing three districts of Greater Santiago.

Due to its characteristics, the project involves activities that apply to different disciplines of engineering and urban planning, such as: Civil (Soil Mechanics, Hydraulics, Roads), Structural, Transport, Electricity, Architecture and Landscaping, Electrical, etc. which are developed jointly, according to the scope of the project.

The axis under study is located in the north-eastern sector of Santiago, with a total length of approximately 2.5 km.
