This signing shows this highway’s commitment to the social and professional integration of people with intellectual disabilities in Bages.

According to Torrell, Autema highway pays special attention to continuing to contract the services, suppliers and contractors in its environment”. He added, “over 90% of our workforce is comprised of residents of the districts of Bages and Vallès.

Toni Espinal thanked the trust that Autema highway has placed in Ampans since 2001. Continuously for 13 years and through the Special Work Center (CET), this foundation that currently serves more than a thousand people performs the landscaping operations of this highway.

The service performed by this team includes the maintenance of green areas, mowing edges and islets, tree pruning, phytosanitary treatment, cleaning roadsides and adjacent areas, creating new garden areas and maintenance and conservation of indoor plants of this concession’s facilities.
