As part of the comprehensive care for road infrastructure in the state of Táchira, the Ministry of the People's Power of Public Works, in coordination with the Government, is carrying out repair and rehabilitation maneuvers on the San Cristóbal-Rubio highway, in Local 009, specifically in the Puente de Oro sector of the Capacho Viejo municipality.

The deployed crews have carried out the topographic redesign and alignment of 20 meters of ditches.

In addition, the extension and shaping of material was carried out for the protection and stabilization of the embankment, with a movement of approximately 40 m³ of material, and the channeling and dredging of the ravine was completed, reaching approximately 750 linear meters channeled.

In the same way, the asphalt pavement was cut and the subsequent excavation was carried out to reduce and optimize the longitudinal slope in the affected section, eliminating the existing geometric discontinuity.

For the execution of the activities, 4 jumbos, 1 D6L bulldozer, 1 motor pump, 1 backhoe, 1 motor grader, 1 vibrocompactor 30 volts were used. Tools such as bars, picks, shovels, wheelbarrows, measuring tape, wire and 1/2 inch razor were also used

These works directly benefit nearly 2,500 residents and drivers who travel daily through this strategic road artery, which also connects with Colombia, restoring optimal conditions of safety and traffic flow between San Cristóbal and Rubio.
