With an Investment of R$ 5 Million, the Project Will Ensure a Safe Crossing Over the Amônia River and Facilitate Access to Essential Services in the Municipality.

The government of Acre, through Deracre, started on Friday, 6, the construction of a new footbridge over the Amônia River in Marechal Thaumaturgo. The structure, highly anticipated by the population, will bring more mobility and safety, benefiting hundreds of families in the region.

Project over the Amônia River Will Ensure Mobility and Safety

The construction of the footbridge represents a significant advancement for the residents of Marechal Thaumaturgo. The president of Deracre, Sula Ximenes, emphasized the importance of the project. “The construction of this footbridge represents more dignity for the population“, she stated. According to her, the project brings mobility to those who need it most. The new structure will benefit hundreds of families throughout the year, ensuring a safe and permanent crossing.

Construction Details: How the New Footbridge Is Being Erected

The execution of the project is a partnership with the Negreiros, Vida, and Imperial Consortium and involves a team of 15 workers. The work began with the survey team, which marked the four supporting pillars. Then, excavation for the base of the first pillar was initiated. To ensure the stability of the structure, metal stakes are being driven into the ground with the help of a pile driver, a piece of equipment that functions like a giant hammer to drive the stakes into the soil.

Investment and Partnerships: R$ 5 Million for the Implementation of the Project

The construction has a total investment of R$ 5 million. The funds come from a parliamentary amendment by Senator Márcio Bittar. The project is part of an agreement with the Ministry of Integration and Regional Development (MIDR). Governor Gladson Cameli reinforced the commitment to the population. “Our commitment is to every Acrean, especially those living in more isolated regions”, he said.

Impact of the Construction: More Dignity and Access for Residents

Currently, the population of Marechal Thaumaturgo depends on boats to cross the Amônia River. The crossing is essential for accessing the airstrip and other important areas of the municipality. The new footbridge will eliminate this dependency, facilitating secure movement at any time of the year. “Projects like this show that we are working to ensure access, dignity, and development for everyone”, concluded the governor.

Engineers want to carve through Africa with a giant canal to bring water from the world’s second-largest river to a dying lake on the edge of the Sahara Desert that has already lost 90% of its water.

Brazil filled the Northeast with wind turbines but now faces the side effect of 705 giant blades reaching the end of their lifespan by 2032 just in Rio Grande do Norte, while the world projects 43 million tons of waste by 2050.

India approved the country’s first submerged road-rail tunnel, 15.8 kilometers dug under the bed of the Brahmaputra River.

Instead of burning or burying old tires, an American city is transforming about 2,000 of them into the street itself, paving its first sections with a quieter and more durable rubber asphalt.

In just one cast, fishermen are surprised to capture 14,096 mullets in Bombinhas and close a historic season with 58,000 fish; scene recorded in the Santa Catarina paradise marks the last day of the 2026 season.

10 giant tortoises are reintroduced and, in just 6 months, trigger changes that lead scientists to investigate a phenomenon absent for 180 years; the numbers recorded on the island impress researchers from around the world.

Greek island offers free housing for volunteers, but there’s a condition: you need to take care of rescued cats.

Only 28% of the ocean floor has been accurately mapped, less than what is already known about the surface of Mars and the Moon, and scientists consider the topic strategic for Brazil, with a global goal to map everything by 2030.

Japan wants to bury a 500 km “cargo conveyor” between Tokyo and Osaka to replace up to 25,000 trucks per day, move goods through tunnels and automated driverless corridors, and avoid a logistical collapse in an increasingly aging country.
