📋 Tender Overview
The expansion and improvement works of the General Aquino route continue to register significant progress, with interventions concentrated at strategic points of the project. At this stage, the work focuses on the foundation of the future viaduct, the strengthening of the drainage system and the execution of structural milestones on the Abay bridge. Currently, the drilling of the first piles has already begun, as well as the topographical layout as well as the clearing and cleaning necessary to free the area of implementation of the work and allow the safe development of the planned tasks. Current detour plan Temporary circulation on Elizardo Aquino Avenue, in the section between General Bernardino Caballero and San Miguel streets, is scheduled until this Friday the 19th. However, due to the weather conditions recorded in recent days, which affected the pace of execution, this scheme could be extended until the completion of the scheduled work in that sector. Meanwhile, traffic in both directions remains enabled through a guided tour, designed to guarantee road safety. This scheme includes an initial warning zone, a progressive movement towards the shoulder in the Luque-Asuncion direction and, finally, the orderly return to the usual lane once the intervened section has been passed. Road front and drainage in the Air Force area In the sector corresponding to the Air Force, the tasks are concentrated on enabling the work front with a view to future paving. To achieve this, clearing, cleaning and unclassified excavation work is carried out, which allows the road strip to be freed and conditioned. Likewise, the base base is prepared to begin the execution of the improved subgrade, which will be followed by the layers of granular subbase, granular base and, finally, paving. In parallel, the placement of simple cellular culverts on the right side of the Elizardo Aquino route continues, as well as the execution of lined gutters to optimize storm drainage. Abay Bridge and works in Ytororo In relation to the concrete structures, the work presents a high degree of progress. On the Abay bridge, the foundations on the right side have already been completed, thus completing the execution of the piles and caps corresponding to that sector. Also, progress was made with the loading of the intermediate piles on the left bank, which will allow the superstructure to be supported and enable the continuity of the viaduct. On Ytororo Street, the structure to protect the sewage pipe was completed, to protect the sanitary facilities and prevent damage during the works. At the same time, the latest cellular galleries are being installed, which are part of the storm drainage system and will allow road work to begin soon, improving water evacuation and the durability of the road.
