Baja California is experiencing a historic stage of growth driven by unprecedented investment in infrastructure, stated Governor Marina del Pilar Avila Olmeda. The head of the executive branch highlighted during the swearing-in ceremony of the new Board of Directors of the Mexican Chamber of the Construction Industry (CMIC) Baja California delegation, that her administration projects to exceed 50 billion pesos in public works investment with state resources by the end of her term. "We are building works as never before in the history of Baja California. Baja California today has a strategic role in this process due to its location, its industrial capacity, and its link to international markets. We are a state that believes in investment in public works and infrastructure, and where the construction industry is a great ally in building a more prosperous, more dynamic state where the dreams of families come true," she mentioned. She emphasized that this investment has allowed for the development of high-impact projects, such as the Viaducto Elevado in Tijuana and the Distribuidor Vial Lázaro Cárdenas in Mexicali, which transform mobility, logistics, and the state's competitiveness, generating direct benefits in the daily lives of the population. She stressed that the strengthening of public finances has been key to directing resources to priority works, without depending exclusively on the federation, but by promoting its own actions that address the most urgent needs of the population. Likewise, she pointed out that every peso invested in infrastructure generates a significant economic multiplier effect, by triggering formal jobs, strengthening value chains, and benefiting sectors such as transportation, commerce, and services. In this sense, Avila Olmeda reiterated her administration's commitment to maintaining clear rules, transparency, and conditions of fair competition, which will allow for continuing to attract investment and strengthening collaboration with the sector. The ceremony was attended by the national president of CMIC, Luis Méndez Jaled, who highlighted that Baja California stands out for its dynamism, productive vocation, and leading role in the country's industrial and commercial activity. "The Mexico Plan establishes a route to strengthen investment, expand productive capacity, and integrate the national supply chain with infrastructure. Here, every project has a direct impact on competitiveness," added the CMIC leader.
