A key road project is now commencing in Peruvian port Callao. The work is costing some US$186.4 million and is being carried out by Brazilian contractor 1339 Andrade Gutierrez. The project involves widening and improving Nestor Gambetta Avenue from two lanes in either direction at present to three lanes in either direction. The aim of the work is to improve traffic flow as the link carries a high percentage of heavy trucks between the Callao port and the Panamericana Norte highway. The work should be finished in 18 months.
