SPA announces public call to construct and operate two truck parking lots

On Tuesday, March 23, Santos Port Authority (SPA) published a public call for proposals on its website to identify those interested in the construction and operation of two parking lots in Ponta da Praia, in Santos, for the preferential use of autonomous truck drivers who transport cargo between port and retro port terminals (“intra-port transportation”).

The areas are located between Rua Maria Máximo, Rua Comendador Alfaia Rodrigues, and Avenida Pedro Lessa (Area 1, totaling 7881 m²); and between Rua Comendador Alfaia Rodrigues and Rua Cipriano Barata (Area 2, totaling 3640 m²). The area to be used for consideration will be allowed for a period of five years, extendable at the discretion of the SPA.

Conceptual projects and other documents required in the call notice and its attachments must be sent to the port authority within 30 calendar days of the publication on the SPA website, to the e-mail [email protected]. If there is more than one interested party for each area, the SPA will carry out a selection process.

The object of the aforementioned call also includes the provision of services and the provision of necessary facilities to guarantee minimum safety, sanitation, and comfort conditions for truck drivers. These services should include, at minimum, uninterrupted monitoring by closed-circuit cameras (DFTV), with real-time image sharing with the SPA, as well as daily cleaning of the area, in particular grain particulates, drainage system, toilets, and changing rooms and rest areas with a place for meals.

Interested parties must submit a conceptual project that at least contains the number of parking spaces; the description of the services and facilities envisaged; the implementation schedule; the estimated amount charged by users, according to the period of stay (amount per hour – R$ / hour); and the SPA’s remuneration proposal for occupying the area, based on the amount per square meter.

Proponents interested in presenting conceptual projects for both areas must do so separately. The information provided in the conceptual projects will support the eventual modeling of the transfer of rights of assignment for the available areas.

The call notice and its attachments will be available on the Santos Port Authority website (www.portodesantos.com.br).
