In an unprecedented move, the Argentine national government has transferred the administration of Route A012 to Santa Fe province for 20 years. With an initial investment of $5 billion ARS, roadworks are set to begin this Thursday to repair this vital corridor, through which 80% of the country's grain exports flow.
The national government prepares a decisive week with economic announcements, transfer of road projects, and a new international tour. President Javier Milei will travel to Brazil to support Flávio Bolsonaro and will reopen the traditional Palermo Rural Exhibition, consolidating an agenda of strong political and productive impact.
As students return to classes after the winter break, the Mendoza government advises planning travel times. Roadworks on the East and South accesses might cause delays of up to 40 minutes but promise better infrastructure and connectivity for the whole province.
Mendoza's government has implemented a new 200-meter bypass at Don Bosco bridge to reduce traffic delays of up to 45 minutes on Provincial Route 22. The initiative is part of a larger USD 10 million infrastructure project to pave 26 km of collector roads.
