The extension of time matches contractual closing date of the civil works under component one (Improving the San Buenaventura-Ixiamas National Road), and is also necessary to allow implementation of the works within component two (improving the Rurrenabaque airport) to proceed. The extended closing date will allow a new design strategy for implementation of component three to be considered. The Restructuring will extend the closing date of the project, from December 31, 2016, until August 7, 2018, slightly more than 19 months to complete the implementation and achieve the project objectives. The Government of the Plurinational State of Bolivia (GoB) has formally requested this extension of the closing date of the credit through a letter dated August 3, 2016. This is the first closing date extension of the project.  Réduire
