📋 Tender Overview
Work facilitates the efficient and safe transfer of people and goods between Chimbote, Santa and other locations in the region.With the aim of guaranteeing a safer and more fluid traffic through the Panamericana Norte, the Ministry of Transport and Communications (MTC), through Nacional Provias, concluded the maintenance work of the Coishco bridge, located at kilometer 443 of the PE-1N route, Chimbote-Santa section, in the Ancash region.
This Harzone type modular bridge, double track and with pedestrian catwalks, was installed in 2020 and has a length of 51,82 meters. Four years after its operation, the intense vehicular flow, which includes from private cars to heavy cargo trucks, generated wear in some components, which made a specialized technical intervention necessary.
The maintenance work included the replacement and assembly of covers, repair of walls against impact, as well as the manufacture and placement of media for joists. In addition, road safety and traffic control actions were executed to protect users during the development of the work.
With an investment greater than the S/ 61 thousand, this intervention reaffirms the commitment of the MTC to the permanent care of road infrastructure, ensuring the safety of thousands of citizens who daily mobilize by this important artery in the north of the country.
Thanks to these improvements, the Coishco bridge operates again in optimal conditions, facilitating the efficient and safe transfer of people and goods between Chimbote, Santa and other locations in the region.
The MTC ratifies its commitment to continue strengthening the national road network with works that promote development and improve the quality of life of all Peruvians.
