WORKS IMPROVE QUALITY AND SAFETY IN RÍO NEGRO ROUTES
Construction of the roundabout linking Routes 2 and 24 will be completed by the end of June. Works begin in September to improve the quality of route 25.
The roundabout being built at the intersection of Routes 2 and 24, in a place known as La Víbora, near Fray Bentos, will improve safety conditions at this "dangerous intersection, which has cost many lives." This was stated by Minister José Luis Falero, during his visit to the department of Río Negro.
Likewise, Falero reported that works will begin in September to raise the quality standard of Route 25, which joins Routes 3 and 24. The intervention will be carried out on a 25-kilometer stretch and will require an investment of 22 million dollars.
Another important work in Río Negro is the one carried out on Route 20, which joins Routes 5 and 24. In this way it will become a new transversal, like Routes 14 and 26, and will facilitate circulation throughout the territory. without having to go south. Currently, a new section of about 30 kilometers is being built, which expands the national road heritage.
