The mega project for a main road linking the Pacific beaches of Nicaragua, aroused the interest of Italian and Spanish investors last year, under the banner of the Nicaragua - Europe Business Meeting 2011.

In this regard, Mario Salinas, chief executive of the Nicaraguan Institute of Tourism (Intur), said that there is still interest from Italian who may come to the country in the coming months to formally submit an offer to the Government.

"The aim of the Italian investors, said Salinas in October, is for the road to include parking areas, fueling facilities, food, places to sell crafts, installation of solar power plants for the road’s lighting and that of surrounding areas, look out points and rural tourism projects in nearby farms.

The coastal road project covers 135 kilometers", reports Laprensa.com.ni
