Comptroller communicated report on work balance of more than S/ 14 millionPiura - The Comptroller General of the Republic (CGR) warned the District Municipality of Catacaos on the deterioration of the base layer in the rehabilitation of the neighborhood road from the towns of Monte Castillo, Buenos Aires of Cumbibira, Cumbibira Norte, Cumbibira Centro, Cumbibira to Vichayal, in the aforementioned district of the Lower Piura, due to the time elapsed since its placement and the traffic of vehicles. This situation affects the quality, useful life of the work and adequate transitability.
According to the Control Milestay Report No. 009-2025-OCI/2408-SCC, which evaluates the period from August 29 to September 15, 2025, the detachment of the thick aggregate and fine aggregate (materials used in the construction of the road) was verified, which implies a decrease in the thick undulations
In this way, its function is harmed as a structural support because a deteriorated base layer does not provide a uniform and solid surface, which prevents the subsequent primer (application of liquid asphalt before placing the asphalt mixture) adheres correctly. This generates a bad union between the layers and, in turn, could cause premature failures such as potholes, fissures and deformations to the ended asphalted.
Likewise, the separation of the aggregates in the base material was evidenced, which are part of the structural package of the road to be built. It is a phenomenon of deterioration that causes the loss of internal cohesion, causing the material to crumble or separate into its components.
This process has been caused by the transit of vehicles, since the tranqueras has not been put to avoid their passage and the lack of maintenance due to moistening, taking into account that the entry of the tanks was impossible for the tapes through the stops on the road put by the contractor and that the work is maintained with a period suspended since last August 2.
The Control Commission also verified filling slopes with high slope that have been incorporated for the access of bridge 2, without adequate protection, there is a lack of removal of surplus material in the area. This situation could affect the use of this bridge, the public purpose and the security in the work.
In December 2022, the work was awarded to a consortium, but in June 2024 the contract was resolved. At the end of that year, a new contract with another company for the work balance was signed and a period of 210 calendar days was established. The accumulated physical advance is 39%. The project amounts to more than S/ 14 million.
The Control Report was notified to the entitys holder and is published in the Institutional Portal Control Portal Reports.
