May 09, 2014 - May 15, 2014 in Foz do Iguacu, Brazil

The Burbon Convention & Spa Resourt, Avenida das Cataratas, 2 Vila Yolanda

On behalf of ITA-AITES, it is my utmost pleasures to great all the delegates as well as the honourable guests of the World Tunnel Congress 2014 and the 40th General Assembly. It is a pleasure to see that in our Association’s 40th year anniversary our activity level within ITA-AITES is very high and at the same time the global tunnelling market seems to be bigger than ever. It gives me confidence for the future and that our Association will continue to be an important global player.

WTC2014 will be the second to be hosted in South America and the second in Brazil. After a memorable WTC and General Assembly in 1998 in São Paulo, we are this year looking forward to go to Iguassu.

The main theme of the congress is “Tunnels for a better life”. Since ITA’s creation in 1974, this motto has been important for us. From the origin, tunnels have always been built to improve the life of people all around the world, through tunnels transporting water, sewage, or transporting people in trains, by cars or in metropolis urban transport.
