Brazil’s overtaxed airports could be a major problem at the 2014 World Cup, and renovation plans won’t help matters at 10 of the 13 airports if the usual timelines for infrastructure projects inBrazil are maintained.
The Brazilian government study recommends changes in the investment plans made by Brazil’s airport authority, Brazil’s Economic Research Institute.Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff wants private investors to participate in airport projects to ensure they are finished and proposes to create a civilaviation ministry.
Airports aren’t the only World Cup 2014 worry. There are concerns about work on stadiums and infrastructure. Investment on the World Cup could reach $20 billion,including about $3 billion on airports.
