Tumaco and Mosquera to build 26 stilt bridges

An infrastructure project has been announced to construct 26 new stilt bridges in the Nariño Pacific region, specifically benefiting communities in Tumaco and Mosquera.

Due to the unique geography of the Pacific coast, which includes canals, estuaries, and floodable areas, these elevated structures are essential for connecting homes, schools, community spaces, and economic zones. The project aims to improve daily mobility for residents and provide an economic boost by facilitating the transport of goods and access to commercial activities.
