It includes two modular bridges that will work while the two -lane final bridge that will have more than 86 m long.The Ministry of Transport and Communications (MTC), through the General Directorate of Transport Programs and projects, reports that on Monday, March 10, provisional accesses and two modular bridges of the temporary detour that will allow the construction of the new Montalvo bridge, located in KM 1146 of the South Pan American, in the Moquegua region, will be put into operation.
The provisional detour will allow vehicular circulation in both directions, facilitating the transit from north to south and vice versa. It includes two metal bridges, each of a lane with a useful width of 4.20 m, with a maximum capacity of 40 tn and a length of 60.96 meters.
In addition, it has a pedestrian catwalk for greater safety of passersby.
The commissioning of the provisional detour will allow the disassembly of the old Montalvo modular bridge, in order to start the construction of the new final bridge of 86.5 meters in length that will have two lanes. The design includes a resistant metallic arch of 400 tons, sustained by concrete pillars, which ensures a solid and lasting structure.
The definitive bridge will have a riverside defense system with the placement of more than 1800 cubic meters of rocket. This measure will also contribute to reducing the risk of floods caused by rains and huaicos. This will provide greater peace of mind to the population and the continuity of traffic in the area will be guaranteed.
With an investment of S/38 million, this project was completed through the subscription of an commission certificate, signed with the Covinca S.A. Concessionaire. Its execution reaffirms the commitment of the MTC to develop safe and quality infrastructure that improve regional mobility and development.
