La Agencia Nacional de Infraestructura rechazó la iniciativa privada IP Conexión Centro presentada por Odinsa, que contemplaba inversiones por $7 billones. El presidente Gustavo Petro defendió la decisión, mientras que el líder empresarial Bruce Mac Master la criticó.

La ministra de Transporte, María Fernanda Rojas, confirmó que la ANI rechazó el proyecto tras un análisis técnico y jurídico. La propuesta incluía 77 kilómetros de vías nuevas y mejoras en 317 kilómetros de corredores entre Armenia, Pereira, Manizales y Calarcá-La Paila.

El presidente Gustavo Petro afirmó que la decisión permitirá crear "miles de puestos de trabajo permanentes en la producción que crecerá por ponerle precisamente menos peajes". Bruce Mac Master, presidente de la Andi, respondió que el gobierno está "celebrando una decisión de renunciar a 54.000 empleos, $7 billones de inversión y numerosas obras".

Las acciones de Grupo Argos y Cementos Argos cayeron en la Bolsa de Valores de Colombia tras el anuncio. La Procuraduría General abrió vigilancia preventiva sobre el corredor vial y solicitó información al Ministerio de Transporte y la ANI sobre el futuro de la concesión Autopistas del Café.
