Our transport solutions

Roads

ACCIONA is helping to shape the future of smart highways and roads thanks to its experience, know-how, and emphasis on sustainability.

The company is involved in all the stages of highway construction projects, using big data to digitalize the design, construction, and operation of its transportation infrastructure to reduce execution times and costs.

When designing and building its highways, ACCIONA prioritizes the protection of the environment and local communities, encouraging the reuse of materials and implementing innovative techniques to achieve its sustainability goals, such as the deployment of construction methods that promote the circular economy.
