14 km were retreads with modified asphalt BITAFLEX AM3, que le brindarán al tramo construido una gran durabilidad frente a las cargas que por allí circulan. Agradecemos a la empresa por confiar en Grupo BITAFAL el suministro del asfalto modificado para tan importante obra.
The inauguration was attended by the Minister of Transportation, Victor Rossi, the Minister of Labor, Ernesto Murro, the Mayor of Canelones, Yamandú Orsi, high-ranking national and departmental authorities, members of colleague companies, the MTOP, suppliers and residents of the area. During it, Hebert González was honored and remembered with anecdotes, phrases and emphasizing the capacity for work and love for what is done, which were the identity of the recently deceased director of the company. Later, Colier's direction through Eng. Juan Echeverz paid tribute to the "patron" and friend that filled all those present who were lucky enough to meet him with emotion.
