Ineco has carried out the study into the signalling upgrading of road signs on three highways in Mexico.

Thanks to the economic policies put in place in recent years Mexico has become the third largest Latin American economy. Therefore the country is stepping on the gas in its effort to modernise and upgrade its vast network of infrastructures.

Since 2007 Mexico has invested an average of 4.5% of its GDP in infrastructures. The majority of this money has been spent on roads in the world's most active contract award programme over the last three years.

Safer, more efficient roads

In 2010 Ineco's Roads Division was entrusted with the task of drawing up a study into the upgrade of road signs on the three highways between Mexico City and Veracruz, Irapuato and Acapulco.

This project arose from a cooperation agreement between the State agency CAPUFE (Federal Roads and Bridges and Associated Services) and Banobras (National Bank of Works and Services).

The task of the Ineco team was to analyse the condition of road signs on the three highways, propose improvements, draw up a comparative report on the Spanish and Mexican road signal regulations, issue a draft version of possible amendments to said regulations and to draw up the new highway signaling project.
