Missing links
SOFICO's initial mission was to complete the large infrastructures indicated on the maps of the Trans-European road and waterway network as "missing links".
To date, five large infrastructures have been completed :

- The E429/A8 motorway between Ghislenghien and Hacquegnies – finished in 2000
- The Canal du Centre and the Strepy-Thieu boat lift – finished in 2002
- The 4th lock of Lanaye – finished in 2015
- The new Ivoz-Ramet lock – finished in 2015
Two other infrastructures are being built :
- The Couvin motorway bypass: a new 13.8 km section on the E420/N5 which should be completed in the end of 2020.
- The new Ampsin-Neuville lock – the works started in August 2018 and are to be completed in 2024.
