Over 65,000 jobs are reportedly to be created with the development of a new spy-themed leisure complex in Aragon, Spain. With construction of the Gran Scala leisure complex planned to start by the end of 2008, it is expected that there will be a massive construction recruitment drive in Spain and elsewhere over the coming months.
The international development consortium behind the scheme recently unveiled plans for the €17billion Gran Scala complex and they were enthusiastically welcomed by locals and Government.
Despite global market uncertainty and doubts about economic growth, the Gran Scala development will be a huge boost for construction job opportunities in Spain. The Spanish Government has also committed to an infrastructure roll-out programme. The local government in Zaragoza has agreed to invest €250million in transport links, power and telecommunications for the project which will result in a boom for civils jobs in Aragon.
Developers of Gran Scala say the scheme will be built in three stages, cover an area of 2,025 hectares and employ 65,000 people. The first phase will start in late 2008 and will last about two years. This will comprise the construction of three theme parks and a group of casinos. The second phase will consist of the development of a fourth theme park and other casinos and the final stage is scheduled to be completed in 2023. There will also be a golf course, horse racing, conference centres, museums and concert halls.
Most of the investment will be on building 32 themed casinos, 70 hotels and five theme parks.
