DESCRIPTION OF WORKS
The work involves repaving and rebuilding Provincial Road 5, about 63.2 Km.
The fundamental objective of this project is to improve the conditions of the road network linking the towns in this productive area of Santiago del Estero, running between Banda and San Pablo. The improvements aim to facilitate and minimize the cost of transportation using the road and, particularly to achieve better standards of safety and comfort for all users.
The works consist of scarifying, adding corrective material and compacting the existing road surface, as this structural layer becomes the subbase. A granular base was laid on top and finally asphaltic concrete surfacing.
Between the progressives 14+000-15+000, 18+000-34+500 and 39+500-63+200 there is a zone of saltflats, so polyethylene sheeting was laid to protect the structure from the harmful action of the salts.
Paved shoulders were laid between 0+000 and 5+650 to function as a bike track. Other interventions were also carried out such as:
Building concrete walkways between progressives 12+000 and 24+830
Six bus bays and shelters for passenger transport.
Four channeled intersections in correspondence with the crossings with Provincial Road No. 89
Access to Nuevo Líbano, Pampa Mayo and Provincial Road No. 21 with their corresponding signage.
Lighting for intersection between RP No. 5 and RP No. 21 and the cycle track.
Building metal Flex Beam guardrails
Horizontal markings and vertical signage
