The 47.5 km work will connect the city of Tacna with the main spa in the region more quickly and safely, benefiting more than 137 thousand citizens.The Ministry of Transportation and Communications (MTC), through Provias Nacional, continues with the execution of the project to improve the Boca del Rio - Tacna highway, a strategic work that will transform the connectivity between the city of Tacna and its main resort, promoting the economic, tourist and social development of the region.
The intervention includes an investment of S/ 608.5 million for the construction of a modern paved road that will allow faster, safer and more efficient movement between the regional capital and the Tacna coast.
The project is developed along 47.52 kilometers, crossing the districts of Tacna, Sama and La Yarada-Los Palos. The new infrastructure will have a first-class highway standard, directly benefiting more than 137 thousand inhabitants and strengthening territorial integration in the extreme south of the country.
The work includes two carriageways with two lanes in each direction, side shoulders, ditches, drainage works and various complementary structures. Likewise, vehicular bridges, overpasses, pedestrian bridges and bicycle lanes will be built, elements that will significantly raise the levels of road safety and traffic efficiency.
Currently, the work focuses on embankment cuts, sub-base formation, extraction of material from quarries and organization of work fronts, key stages to advance the construction of the future highway.
Once completed, the Boca del Rio - Tacna highway will reduce travel times, improve access to the coast and boost productive, commercial and tourist activities. In this way, it will be consolidated as a key road corridor for the growth and competitiveness of the south of the country.
The MTC thus reaffirms its commitment to continue promoting road infrastructure projects that strengthen connectivity, promote regional development and improve the quality of life of the population.
