📋 Tender Overview
The Ecovia Toll booth will go from 4 to 8 booths in order to improve the attention of those who circulate on the Luque - Samber route. Within the framework of the works of the Rapid Access and Exit of Asuncion Structuring Road Network, the Ministry of Public Works and Communications, through the Rutas del Este Company, carries out the expansion and modernization of this toll station, to raise the quality of service, strengthen operation and streamline vehicular traffic. During a technical visit, the Minister of Public Works, Eng. Claudia Centurion, highlighted the progress of the work and its impact on urban connectivity. We are at the Ecovia tollbooth, where the construction of new booths and the widening of the platform are progressing to provide users with better conditions, he said. The Secretary of State pointed out that these actions are integrated into the improvement of the corridor that links with route PY02, including the 3,600-meter viaduct that connects Luque and Asuncion, with the goal of optimizing travel and consolidating a more efficient road network. Likewise, he emphasized that it is urban infrastructure aimed at raising the quality of life of the population and responding to citizen demands. Built-in improvements The plan provides for the creation of four additional toll lanes, which will allow eight lanes to be operational. This adaptation will substantially increase vehicle processing capacity and will contribute to reducing queues, especially during peak hours and times of increased traffic. Access to the station will also be expanded, facilitating better flow distribution and greater dynamism at the entrance. The new roads will have updated technological equipment: automatic vehicle classification systems, automated barriers, traffic light signaling and LED panels with differentiated fare information. This aims to consolidate a more agile, clear and efficient scheme. Complementary infrastructure The project also covers the expansion of the platform, with soil movement tasks, formation of the structural base and execution of the asphalt layer; the adaptation of electromechanical installations required for the added lanes; updating horizontal and vertical signage in accordance with current regulations; and the construction of a space that will house the User Service Center, administrative offices and a collection area with higher security standards. Thanks to these actions, the station will have conditions in line with the sustained growth of traffic, shortening waiting times and reinforcing road safety. This initiative also provides greater order, accessibility and comfort for those who travel through this strategic corridor. Date: February 28, 2026
