Experts are confident that a China-led consortium's landing of a giant road-building project in Colombia could unlock other Latin American infrastructure deals in future.

Autopistas Urab��s, a consortium led by China Harbour Engineering Company (with a 30 percent share), was awarded the bid to build the 245-km highway, Autopista al Mar 2, by Colombia's national infrastructure agency on September 22.

Valued at 2.6 trillion pesos ($872 million), the contract will also involve the building of 27 tunnels, 22 bridges and viaducts.
