Resolution No. 990/2026 authorises expenditure of up to €3.59 million, plus VAT, for works on the ER 204, ER 211 and ER 217. The contract will be put out to public tender, with a notice published in the Official Journal of the European Union.
The Regional Government has authorised expenditure of up to €5,590,000, plus VAT at the applicable legal rate, for a public procurement procedure covering works on regional roads. Regional Government Council Resolution No. 990/2026, dated 19 October, divides the contract into three lots.
The resolution sets out the aims of upgrading and modernising the regional road network, improving operational capacity and safety, and adapting sections to increased traffic flows. It also refers to the rehabilitation and modernisation of drainage, safety and signalling systems.
The Government has determined that the procedure will take the form of a public tender, with a notice published in the Official Journal of the European Union, and has approved the tender rules and specifications. The costs will be covered by funds from the Budget of the Autonomous Region of Madeira, in accordance with Ordinance No. 281/2026, published in JORAM, Series I, No. 114, on 26 June 2026.
The resolution delegates to the Regional Secretary for Equipment and Infrastructure, with the possibility of subdelegation, the authority to take the necessary actions as part of the procedure.
Regional funding for the rehabilitation of the Praia Formosa Seafront remains capped at €4,828,876.35, but the costs have been rescheduled through 2029. The change follows the lack of valid bids for the second phase of the works and a revision of the project.
The Regional Government has authorised additional construction supervision and monitoring services for Madeira Central Hospital, at an extra cost of up to €29,620. The service period increases from 105 to 107 months, and the contract’s maximum term rises from 228 to 230 months.
The Region will fund the revitalization of the Machico Forum’s infrastructure and equipment, with a maximum contribution of €1,422,693. The funding will be allocated across 2026, 2027 and 2028 through a programme contract with SMD.
