📋 Tender Overview
One will avoid the effects caused by a ravine during rainy seasons and the other replaces a culvert that accumulated sediment and affected the road. The Minister of Transport and Communications, Raul Perez Reyes, reported that Provias Nacional, the executing unit of the MTC, completed the installation of two modular bridges in the regions of Ancash and Huanuco. The interventions are part of the National Bridge Program.
In Ancash, the Shiulla 2 modular bridge (42.67 m long) was installed, located at km 71 of the Pasancancha - Pomabamba - Piscobamba - San Luis -Huari section, which is part of the PE-14C highway in the province of Pomabamba. In the area there is a ravine that is activated during the rainy season, which constantly interrupts the road. For this reason, the bridge was installed that will improve the conditions for vehicular traffic and avoid restrictions on the route, also benefiting the provinces of Sihuas, Mariscal Luzuriaga and Carlos Fermin Fitzcarrald.
Likewise, in Huanuco, the installation of the Chichipon modular bridge (12.19 m) was completed, located at km 199 of the Puchka - Huacaybamba section of the national route PE-14A, province of Huacaybamba. This new bridge was installed to replace a culvert that accumulated waste and sediment, which caused overflow of rainwater and river water affecting the road. Therefore, the bridge was placed and the river was channeled, improving the connection in this sector.
The installation of these modular bridges will facilitate the transfer of residents of Ancash and Huanuco, guaranteeing the fluidity of traffic and transportation, both of cargo and passengers.
