📋 Tender Overview
Traffic is now more fluid on the stretch between Vera Enriquez and Pizarro.Approximately 25% of progress is in the temporary patching of trenches in an area of 1,400 m2 that were left unfilled on the perimeter of the avenue. Spain, where an unfinished project to change sanitation networks generated inconvenience due to the dust raised by passing vehicles and chaos in traffic.
The Deputy Manager of Public Works of the Provincial Municipality of Trujillo MPT indicated that as of Tuesday afternoon progress had already been made in the patching of the internal lane of this avenue, in the section between Vera Enriquez, height of the Olympic swimming pool and Jiron Pizarro, where traffic was reopened.
The municipal official verified that the work during the patching is carried out following the technical specifications, specifying that these tasks are accompanied by the support of inspectors from the MPTs Transportation and Transit Management, to prevent traffic congestion from occurring.
We have been working in three shifts, even at night, which is allowing us fluidity in traffic, he assured, specifying that the patching made between the aforementioned roads has an approximate progress of 1,400 square meters.
Only in the section of Espana Avenue between San Martin and Pizarro streets, about 600 square meters of the inner lane of the ring road have been patched. The other continues to be used for vehicle passes, he said.
Today, Wednesday, this section between San Martin and Pizarro should be fully open, very early, he stated, recalling that due to the intense traffic on the section of Av. Spain, at the height of Maria Eguren, there was first intervention there and it was reopened to traffic.
This was the most critical. The base had to be scarified and changed to compact it and not have problems in the future. These tasks are carried out with up to three crews, each with seven people, to advance and finish as soon as possible, as ordered by Mayor Mario Reyna Rodriguez, he specified.
He explained that after the temporary patching, a layer of slurry seal will be applied to uniform the rolling surface.
The work being carried out on Espana Avenue was carried out by the Senor de Ayabaca consortium, contracted by the previous Sedalib management to change the water and sewage networks, but due to the cancellation of the contract they left open and unpatched ditches. The progress achieved was only approximately 38% when the work was stopped.
After the temporary patching, the balance of work that was pending will be put out to tender and executed, doing the final resurfacing and sealing of the entire road, with hot asphalt. This new bidding process will include the change of networks in the sections that were not served.
