The Northern Corridor project is more than 70% complete, benefiting communities in San Pedro and Concepción

Asuncion, IP Agency.- The construction of the Northern Corridor between the two departments has reached 71.9% progress and covers 150 kilometers of the PY22 route, benefiting more than 400,000 people from the cities of San Pedro del Ycuamandiyú, Nueva Germania, Concepción, Horqueta and Belén.

This project is promoted by the Ministry of Public Works and Communications and financed by the Fund for the Structural Convergence of Mercosur (Focem), with an investment of G. 658,885 million.

These activities, complemented by deep drainage and lining of ditches, allow a progress of 57.11%.

Lot 2, managed by the Consorcio Vial Oriental, covers from km 50 to km 88.8 in Belén. In this section, a 200-meter bridge is being built over the Ypané River and access to the Ybapovó port is also being improved, with 68.49% progress.
