The Ministry of Public Works and Communications (MOPC) has announced that the construction of the Bioceánica bridge that will link the cities of Carmelo Peralta (Alto Paraguay) and Puerto Murtinho (Mato Grosso do Sul – Brazil) reached 27.5% overall progress in Paraguay. 

Currently, 300 piles have been successfully constructed on both sides of the Paraguay River. These piles are fundamental as the bridge's foundation, plunging into the rock mass with varying depths of up to 45 m and a maximum diameter of 2 m. The construction sequence involves establishing the heads atop the aforementioned piles, and above them, the pillars and lintels are erected. These elements are pivotal in supporting the deck beams of the access viaducts. The international footbridge, a pivotal segment of the Bioceanic route, is set to span a total of 1,294 m. This expansive span is segmented into three sections: two sections will constitute the access viaducts positioned on both sides of the river, while one section will correspond to the cable-stayed portion, measuring 632 m in length, with a central span of 350 m. 

The undertaking of these endeavors falls under the jurisdiction of the PYBRA Consortium (comprising Tecnoedil SA, Paulitec, and Construtora Cidade), with oversight being provided by the Prointec Consortium.
