📋 Tender Overview
An impressive 510-metre structure over the Huallaga River will benefit more than 32,000 residents in the region.The Ministry of Transport and Communications (MTC), through Provias Descentralizado, reports that the construction work on the Tarata vehicular bridge and its accesses continue to advance according to the planned schedule. This emblematic work in the San Martin region will improve the connectivity of more than 32 thousand inhabitants. This was highlighted by Minister Raul Perez Reyes.
Since the beginning of June to date, the company in charge of the construction has carried out preliminary work, including cutting, land clearing, drilling, topography and georeferencing.
With an investment exceeding S/382 million, the Tarata vehicular bridge will be an important connection between the districts of Juanjui and Pajarillo, and will facilitate the transportation of agricultural products such as cocoa, orange, banana and cassava to local and regional markets. This flow of goods will significantly boost the economy of the benefited communities.
The project includes the construction of a 510-meter-long bridge, along with paved access roads on both banks of the Huallaga River: a 961-meter stretch at Puerto Cangrejo (Juanjui) and another 502-meter stretch at Puerto Tarata (Pajarillo). In addition, there is an environmental management plan, which aims to mitigate, correct or compensate for any environmental impact generated by the work, guaranteeing the sustainability of the environment.
The Ministry of Transport and Communications reaffirms its commitment to the construction of this quality road infrastructure, which will not only improve traffic in the department of San Martin, but will also boost its economic and social development.
