📋 Tender Overview
The execution of the work is guaranteed and, in the coming weeks, the addendum for the construction of this project will be signed. Regarding the execution of the future Santa Rosa Bridge, in Callao, the Minister of Transportation and Communications, Raul Perez Reyes, specified that this project will be carried out under the Government-to-Government modality with France, as part of the Santa Expressway project.
Therefore, to be executed under this modality, it was decided to remove the Santa Rosa Bridge from the List of Projects Prioritized by the sector, through Ministerial Resolution No. 389-2024-MTC/01. The work had been included in that list, because it was going to be executed by the Works for Taxes (OxI) mechanism.
The title of the standard leads to an error of interpretation. The Santa Rosa Bridge was included in the list of prioritized projects, which are executed under the Works for Taxes mechanism. However, there were no companies interested in participating; Therefore, to speed up its construction it will be executed through the Government-to-Government modality, explained the head of the MTC.
The sector resorts to signing the addendum after four selection processes, carried out between 2020 and 2023, were unsuccessful. The last of them, carried out under the modality of Works for Taxes (OxI), was declared void as no technical-economic proposals had been presented.
The Santa Rosa Bridge project, which includes a roundabout, access roads and an overpass, is essential to guarantee the connection with the new Jorge Chavez International Airport. This structure will directly benefit 30 million national and foreign passengers per year, as well as the residents of Callao, by helping to reduce traffic congestion.
What corresponds now is to sign the Addendum. We plan for this to happen within two weeks, at the latest. The execution of this work is guaranteed; Meanwhile, the new airport would be accessed through the modular bridges that will be ready in September, concluded Minister Perez Reyes.
The Santa Rosa Expressway project includes the construction of an elevated viaduct that will connect the Costa Verde with the new air terminal. Its route includes Oscar R. Benavides, Perez Salmon, Argentina and Santa Rosa avenues.
From the Ministry of Transport and Communications, we reaffirm our commitment to continue working to provide the capital with modern and efficient infrastructure, for the benefit of all its inhabitants.
