📋 Tender Overview
Minister Paola Lazarte reported that the Ministry of Transport and Communications MTC through Provas Nacional completed the installation of the Urakuza II modular bridge located at kilometer 44 of the PE-5ND route of the Wawico-Santa Mara de Nieva section in the Amazonas region.This new metal structure replaces the final bridge which was destroyed due to the undermining and collapse of its structure due to heavy rains and the increase in flow in the Kayanza stream.The works which were in charge of the Amazonas Zonal Unit consisted of the assembly of the structures the construction of the accesses at both ends of the ravine and the subsequent launching of the modular bridge.With the installation of this new 33.53-meter-long bridge the connection and trafficability in this sector is recovered in safer conditions and without restrictions on the road which benefits the population of the area.In order to prevent interruptions to the road in the future its structure has been elevated with respect to the level of the previous bridge so that in the event of a possible activation of the ravine the structures of this new bridge are not damaged and trafficability is preserved.Likewise this metal structure facilitates trade and production to other local markets which favors the population of the towns belonging to the district of Wawico and Santa Mara de Nieva in the province of Condorcanqui.The MTC will continue to attend to road emergencies in order to recover trafficability for the benefit of citizens.
