This year’s works consist of expanding from 9 to 12 meters in a goal of 12 kilometers, through the construction of dirt roads, flexible pavement, hydraulic base and asphalt layer, wildlife crossings, complementary works, placement of tri-tubes, fiber optics, and signs.
Currently, workers are placing the asphalt layer, hydraulic base, vertical marking, and other complementary works, such as fencing in the right of way and the completion of six wildlife crossings with reinforced hydraulic concrete slab of 2 x 1.50 meters.
Talking about the placement of the asphalt layer, it is worth mentioning that the equivalent of 8.5 kilometers has been placed already.
Additionally, the expansion to six lanes of the Tixméhuac junction located at kilometer 97.2 is also on the make, works that are 95 percent complete.
