📋 Tender Overview
The asphalt paving of the section that connects Caacupe and Piribebuy is advancing in the department of Cordillera, with 2,200 meters of regularization on cobblestones and the first 1,000 meters of asphalt concrete cover already placed on both sides of the road. The work covers 15.65 kilometers and, once completed, will directly benefit some 80,000 inhabitants, by offering a more comfortable, safe and efficient connection between both cities. Before laying the asphalt layer, patching work was carried out on the paving and the release of different sectors of the road. Likewise, the replacement of pipes in the drinking water network was carried out, with the purpose of guaranteeing the continuity of basic services during the development of the works. New sectors for paving The work continues progressively with the preparation of the following sections that will be paved. In parallel, complementary tasks are carried out to clean the property strip, prepare the lateral canals and weed. All of these interventions will optimize water drainage, improve visibility and reinforce the safety of those who use this important road corridor daily. In addition, the project includes the placement of a five-centimeter thick asphalt concrete layer, the repair of the deteriorated sectors of the paving and the improvement of the drainage system through the construction and adaptation of sewers, gutters and speed bumps. It also includes the installation of road signs and metal defenses at specific points. Promoted by the Ministry of Public Works and Communications (MOPC), the project is carried out by the company Initiatives Constructivas S.A., with an investment of G. 19,692,361,855. The improvements aim to transform connectivity to strengthen productive, commercial and tourist activities in this thriving and dynamic region of the country. Date: July 28, 2026
