The cable-stayed bridge model does not interfere with the river’s navigability, as the pillars will be erected on the banks at a height that allows vessels to pass underneath.
The estimated investment is US$ 75 million, to be funded by the binational Itaipu.
The bridge is expected to have a total length of 680 meters, from one bank to the other of the river. The span between the two pillars would be 380 meters, plus 150 meters from each pillar to the bank.
The height of the pillars that will support the cables (stay) would be 95 meters.
With the two new bridges, Itaipu contributes with basic infrastructure so that Brazil and Paraguay can expand trade between them and also with other countries in the region, from the long-awaited creation of the bioceanic corridor, connecting the ports of Santos and Paranaguá in Brazil to those in Chile.
The bioceanic corridor will reduce the travel time of commodities from Mato Grosso do Sul to the Asian market by 17 days, shipping from the ports in Chile instead of using the ports in Paranaguá (PR) or Santos (SP).
Paraguay launched the bidding for the executive project of the bridge in July, which will start in 2020 with a completion in three years, at a cost of R$ 290 million.
The 680m structure will be installed at km 1032 of the Paraguay River Waterway.
The neighboring country is also paving the 600-kilometer stretch of the route that crosses its territory. Starting from Campo Grande, the highway will cover 2,400 kilometers to the city of Antofagasta in Chile.
The first section, measuring 227 km, is following its schedule in two fronts – Carmelo Peralta and Loma Plata – with the first batch expected to be completed in September, covering 24 km. The work carried out by the Oceânico Road Corridor Consortium (Queiróz Galvão and Ocho A) will cost US$ 420 million.
