📋 Tender Overview
Structure will boost connectivity and development, for the benefit of more than 32,000 inhabitants of the region. The Ministry of Transport and Communications (MTC) reports that the construction of the Tarata vehicular bridge and its accesses, on the Huallaga River, in the San Martin region, has reached an advance of 22 %. To date, key works such as the enable and installation of steel, the concrete emptying in piles, the formwork and installation of steel steel, as well as tests of integrity and dynamic load in piles, among other actions necessary for the development of the work have been executed.
This infrastructure, executed through decentralized provisions of the MTC, will directly benefit more than 32,000 inhabitants of the districts of Juanjui, Pajarillo and Annexes, who currently must resort to alternative means of transport to cross the Huallaga River. With the construction of the bridge, the transfer times will be significantly reduced and connectivity will be strengthened in the area.
The project demands a total investment of S/374 million and contemplates the construction of a bridge of 510 meters in length, accompanied by asphalted accesses on both banks of the Huallaga River: a 961 meter stretch in the Cangrejo port (Juanjui) and another of 502 meters in the Tarata port (Pajarillo).
In addition to improving transitability in the San Martin region, this infrastructure will boost the local economy by facilitating the transport of agricultural products such as cocoa, orange, banana and cassava, optimizing logistics for farmers and merchants. It will also strengthen tourism, promoting the fluid access of visitors to nearby towns.
