The Regional Government of Madeira has approved complementary works to ensure the watertightness of the Machico Health Center building.
The Regional Government Council, through Resolution no. 575/2026, has authorized complementary works for the energy improvement project at the Machico Health Center. This intervention is part of the contract signed between the Autonomous Region of Madeira and the company RIM - Engenharia e Construções, S.A., integrated into a broader project for energy efficiency in two public buildings.
Following a technical analysis of the construction progress, it was found that the building continued to show issues related to water infiltration. To ensure the proper watertightness of the infrastructure, it was determined that the entire roof capping needs to be replaced and waterproofed.
The resolution delegates to the Regional Secretary of Equipment and Infrastructure the powers to sign the contract amendment, with the Regional Director of Social Equipment and Conservation responsible for managing the execution phase. The financial costs will be covered by funds allocated in the Budget of the Autonomous Region of Madeira, as provided for in Ordinance no. 235/2026.
Ordinance No. 498/2026 modifies the financial phasing for the reconstruction of hydraulic infrastructures upstream of ER 101, in Ribeiro da Ponta Delgada (Enxurros), representing a total investment of 1.38 million euros.
The Council of Government has approved a resolution authorizing an expenditure of 6.72 million euros for a slope stabilization and protection project on Via Expresso 2, between the Ladeira da Vinha and João Delgado tunnels.
The Government Council approved the project for the construction of the second phase of the municipal road between Sítio da Igreja and Sítio das Fontes, in Quinta Grande, with a maximum regional contribution of 8.5 million euros.
