📋 Tender Overview
The Ministry of Transport and Communications (MTC), through Provías Descentralizado, has installed so far this year, a total of 26 modular bridges, thus continuing with the programming by the entity in the placement of metal structures in various regions of the country.
These structures benefit more than 678 thousand citizens of the regions of Amazonas, Apurímac, Pasco, Puno, Junín, San Martín, Huánuco and Ucayali.
The installation of the modular bridges, which is promoted by the management of Minister Paola Lazarte, contributes to closing gaps in road infrastructure and promotes the development of economic activities such as agriculture and livestock.
With these bridges, more Peruvian families can move safely and quickly to service centers and surrounding areas. In addition, they allow to boost the economy in these regions, since they connect the localities with the markets and supply centers, said the executive director of Provías Descentralizado, Alexis Carranza.
The modular bridges fluctuate between 16 and 53 meters in length. The investment amount amounts to more than S / 50 million, which includes the purchase of metal structures, their installation and supervision.
In addition, five other bridges are in execution of work, while four are in the stage of preparation of technical file, and two others close to start the procedure.
The longest modular bridges installed this year are: the Shumanza bridge, in the district of Juanjuí, in the province of Mariscal Cáceres in the San Martín region; the Cunas River Bridge, in the district of Chambara, in the province of Concepción; and the San Ana bridge, located in the district of Vitoc, in the province of Chanchamayo, both in the Junín region. These structures have a length of 53.20 meters.
