Las Salinas launches its vision for Viña del Mar project and starts bidding process


The initiative aims to clean up and provide the city with a sustainable urban project, in collaboration with the community and authorities.

The project, submitted to the authorities and the community of Viña del Mar, includes building medium-rise social integration housing, which will occupy 60% of the space.

It also considers the construction of green areas that will connect the coastal edge with the upper sector of Viña del Mar and other works, such as the recovery of the 19 Norte street descent and a park in front of Alessandri Avenue.

This would be developed after a land remediation process, for which the bidding process has already begun following its recent approval by the authorities. Of a total of 14 interested parties, seven international consortiums were chosen as candidates to develop soil bioremediation in the area.

Jan de Nul (Belgium); Lamor (Finland) and Excon (Chile); Litoclean (Spain) and DPC (Chile); RSK (United Kingdom) and Flesan (Chile); Séché (France) and EBCO (Chile); Veolia (France) and Echeverría Izquierdo (Chile); and Züblin (Austria) and Strabag (Germany), were the groups that passed this first selection, which will be awarded in March 2024.
