One of the new symbols of Madrid will rise here
In a technological world, being connected is a necessity for people and
businesses, and involves agile communications and flow of information.
Therefore, one of themost outstanding infrastructures to become a symbol
of Madrid is the bridge connecting Valdebebas to T4, a direct connection
to Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas Airport that is guaranteed to benefit the
tertiary sector and will be an important asset for corporations and hotel
chains due to the connection and proximity to the airport, only fiveminutes
away, thereby shortening the distance between Madrid’s largest business
development and Spain’s greatest air transport infrastructure.
The bridge, which will consolidate Valdebebas as the most important
urban development in Madrid, is a unique engineering feat with a scru-
pulous architectural design: measuring 260 metres long, it will include
160 metres of lighting between its abutments and two lanes in each
direction, projected over the M-12 motorway to the roads that connect
directly with Terminal 4 of the airport.
The airport’s overpass will facilitate and optimise the area’s connections,
as well as those of the corporations located there, to the rest of theworld.
Already under construction, the works are due to last 24 months and the
investment exceeds 20 million euros, fully covered by the Valdebebas
Compensation Board to then be granted to the city of Madrid.
The strategic location of Ciudad Aeroportuaria-Parque Valdebebas will
enable the development of 1.300.000 m² for the tertiary sector with a
wide range of uses (offices, hotels, retail, private education…), which are
sure to benefit from the connection between the largest business devel-
opment in Madrid and the airport, one of the most important connecting
points in Europe to international markets and, above all, Latin America.
