📋 Tender Overview
We finished placing 53 pillars and we are installing the beams to speed up traffic in Lurigancho-Chosica.The construction of the new Las Torres bypass represents 65% of the total work progress, having completed the placement of 53 concrete pillars (columns) and 2 abutments, in addition to being in the process of installing 168 longitudinal beams, which will give shape to this mega-infrastructure that seeks to speed up transit from Lima to Lurigancho-Chosica, reducing travel times and leaving vehicular chaos behind.
Of the 168 beams that will be placed, to date 84 have already been installed and starting next week, until the end of this month of October, this process will be completed. At the same time, the formation of slabs that go on top of the bridge beams through which vehicles will circulate in the three lanes in each direction that the modern 1.4 km viaduct will have is progressing. So far, 2 concrete slabs (the runways) have been poured and will continue until reaching 28.
The next step will be the placement of the jersey walls, which function as protection so that the cars do not leave the road and then the paving of 5 cm tracks will be carried out. to continue with the signaling. Likewise, the paving of the roads adjacent to the bypass such as Las Torres Avenue and the Ramiro Priale highway is also being carried out.
The works include the construction of ramps, walls and curbs, as well as the installation of road signs, signal guards and road reflectors that will reinforce the safety of drivers.
This will reduce travel times between Lima and Chosica, and alleviate traffic congestion at the accesses to Huachipa, Carapongo, the Ramiro Priale highway and the Central Highway.
