Concesionaria Panamericana S.A.S.

What Concesionaria Panamericana S.A.S. does

Concesionaria Panamericana S.A.S. is a Colombian road infrastructure concession company founded in 1997 and headquartered in Bogotá, operating under government concession contract to manage the Centro-Occidente corridor of the department of Cundinamarca. The company controls 111 km of highway across two routes — Los Alpes-Villeta (36.2 km) and Chuguacal-Cambao (74.4 km) — connecting Bogotá toward Honda, and serves motorists, commercial truckers, and bus operators traversing the corridor. It is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Corficolombiana, part of the Grupo Aval financial conglomerate.

The core operating assets are two toll stations — Peaje Jalisco (4 lanes, cash + electronic) and Peaje Guayabal (2 lanes, COLPASS electronic only) — both operational since 2001, with rates set by government decree across vehicle categories I through VII. Supporting infrastructure includes a 24/7 Centro de Control Operativo in Albán, 44 SOS emergency posts along the corridor, three ambulances, free towing service, two weighbridges for cargo compliance, a rest area with 40 parking spots, and road-inspection teams (8 personnel, 2 vehicles). COLPASS, Colombia's national interoperable electronic toll system administered by the Ministry of Transport, is integrated at both stations, offering discounted rates to enrolled users and reducing queue times.

The business model is a regulated toll-collection transaction-fee model: revenue is generated per vehicle crossing, with tariffs mandated by Decree 420 of December 30, 2025. Customers are the dispersed flow of road users rather than contracted accounts; there are no enterprise customers, and the company markets itself through a corporate website, social media channels (X, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn), and its periodic newsletter "El Viario" (5 editions January 2024–February 2026). Annual management and sustainability reports are published for 2021–2025, and the company holds Great Place To Work and Friendly Biz (Cámara de la Diversidad) certifications, with SG-SST occupational health and safety compliance under Decree 1072-15. Regulatory oversight is exercised by SúperTransporte and the ICCU.
