📋 Tender Overview
The works on the Py02 route advance in a sustained way at strategic points of the departments of Cordillera and Central, with active interventions in the upper steps of Costa Pucu and Pedrozo, as well as in the construction of an inclusive pedestrian catwalk in this last town. To date, the accumulated general advance reaches 10.26%. In kilometer 59 the construction of a higher step continues that will facilitate access from Costa Pucu to the Urban Center of Caacupe. On the north side, the formwork and placement of armor of the stirrups are to be completed, while in the south the concreting of the base and the stirrup was already completed. The work prepares for the installation of prefabricated beams that will support the future concrete slab, currently in manufacturing. The viaduct will have two lanes, pedestrian path and lighting, improving connectivity with educational centers, health and commercial areas. Advances in Pedrozo At kilometer 47.5 another vehicular upper step progresses, which includes a pedestrian path in its entirety. Currently the foundations are executed by concreting shoes, which will serve as a structural basis. The objective is to order traffic and reduce risks in a high circulation section. A few meters away, at kilometer 47.6, an inclusive pedestrian catwalk is built, designed with stairs and a hydraulic forklift to guarantee greater accessibility to people with reduced mobility. The foundations have already been completed and prefabricated pillars and beams will be installed. At kilometer 47, a slope vehicular step is also executed at the Jhugua - Pedrozo crossing, which will replace the current traffic light crossing. It will have two lanes and a pedestrian path, allowing a more fluid and safe connection between both sides of the route. The project is in the expropriation stage, already specified in the sectors where the foundations began. These interventions - initiated last May - are part of the addendum No. 5 of the public participation contract No. 01/2017, in charge of the Concessionaire Routes del Este S.A. The initiative responds to citizen orders and aims to consolidate a safer, efficient and adapted road infrastructure to the needs of the territory. Date: July 22, 2025
