3 Transportation Master Plan Master Plan for Transportation Services and Infrastructure in Paraguay Within a 20-year period it seeks to: organize in the short, medium, and long term the development of transportation infrastructure and services achieve a general reduction of transportation costs, instead of following a do-nothing scenario. promote a more efficient multimodal integration and diversification of logistic corridors in order to attain competitive advantage in regional and international markets. develop investment programs for infrastructure through private-public partnerships and concessions.

4 Logistical Challenges 1. De-concentrating low-density load flows of the Grand Asuncion area. 2. Improving multimodal integration. 3. Diversifying Logistic Corridors. 4. Modernizing both planning and management.

5 Road Policy The road policy seeks to align with the objectives of economic growth with social equity, considering both financial and environmental sustainability within a framework of administrative transparency Aims of the Road Policy To improve the competitiveness of local production and exports. To expand employment opportunities and to improve access to markets. To improve the quality of life and access to basic services

6 Road Strategy OBJECTIVES To complete the main road network To improve the general condition of road networks that currently serve both production and the population To implement a new roadmaintenance behavior for all road networks To ensure the financial sustainability of the developed programs. GOALS Inter-National Corridors Bio-Oceanic Corridors To extend the length of the paved road network To improve the quality of traffic on unpaved roads To ensure the quality and safety of road services To minimize the cost of transportation To facilitate access of the population to basic services To respond with the available budgetary resources.

49 5 TRANSPORTATION 5.4 Concession of Airports

50 Project Introduction: The 197/93 Law provides that the Ministry of Public Works and Communications (MOPC) is the agency responsible for infrastructure and basic services. The Charter of the Ministry of Defense gives attribution to the MOPC to participate in the planning and coordination of security infrastructure of strategic interest, as well as to exercise control of airspace and aircraft traffic. The Regulation, Operation and Control of the Aviation System is under the authority of the National Directorate of Civil Aeronautics (DINAC). DINAC has under its responsibility the operation of a network of Airports, composed of 3 International Airports and 8 National Airports, in coordination with the relevant national and international bodies. The 2 main international airports are the Silvio Pettirossi Airport, serving the city of Asunción, and the Guarani Airport, serving Ciudad del Este. There are other airports of outstanding infrastructure such as the Mariscal Estigarribia Airport, and the Encarnación Airport. The three main comparative advantages of the network of Airports in Paraguay are: i) A level of operation of 98% of the time per year due to optimal weather conditions, ii) Flat topography and no more than 100 meters above sea level, and iii). Equidistance with the major cities of South America.

51 Objective of the Project: To modernize the Air Transportation System through Concessions to the Private Sector for the operation of the main airports in order to offer a world class service within a concept of a regional HUB of both passengers and cargo.

52 Previous Studies: Feasibility Study: Cargo HUB in the GUARANI International Airport. Consultant: WOOLPERT INTERNATIONAL INC, Dayton, OH, July, 1996, financed the Department of Commerce of the USA. Feasibility Study: Modernization of the SILVIO PETIROSSI International Airport. Consultant: The Louis Berger Group, Inc. Washington, D.C. June, 2004, financed by the IDB.

53 Projections of Air Cargo in Paraguay Projection anticipating growth of 4.6% pa. Cargo (ton) Cargo (ton)

54 Projections of Passengers in Paraguay: Projection anticipating growth of 4.6% pa Passengers (thousand) Cargo (ton)

55 Conditions to turn the Silvio Petirossi Airport into a Passenger HUB: While the Silvio Petirrossi Airport does not surpass 1,000,000 passengers, the study proposes granting concessions of certain services of the Airport within an investment plan. According to the estimate of the study, the number of passengers for the year 2023 will be 580,000. This amount has already been achieved in Therefore, it is possible to anticipate reaching 1,000,000 passengers in Study by Woolpert Inc (1996) Year 1= 2006

58 Conditions to turn the Guarani International Airport into a Cargo HUB: The Guarani International Airport must handle 80% of national air cargo. Growth of the national and regional air cargo (Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay, and Chile): 7% pa. Featuring 4% of regional cargo movement (Ton 97,000 in year 1) Maintenance of competitive airport charges and traffic control rates, compared to other airports in the region. Estimated investment of USD 35 million.

59 Expansion of the Asuncion Airport s Terminal

60 Expected Impacts: Positioning Paraguay as a regional cargo and passenger HUB, reducing overall logistic costs and increasing competitiveness of air cargo in particular. Encouraging the establishment of services related to air cargo and passenger movement, increasing the demand for skilled labor. Supporting investment attraction and business development, especially those related to conventions and events, as well as the tourism sector.
