Infrastructure projects in Guatemala and Mexico

Overview

In Guatemala City, the Unidad Ejecutora de Conservación Vial (Covial) has initiated repair and reinforcement work on the Periférico-Aguilar Batres bridge in Zone 11. The project addresses structural fatigue through technical interventions such as carbon fiber application, epoxy injections, and steel reinforcement. Authorities estimate the repairs will take six to eight weeks, with a reversible lane implemented to manage traffic.

In Irapuato, Guanajuato, preparatory work is scheduled to begin for the Calzada de Guadalupe overpass, known as the ‘Puente de la Bimbo’. This project, funded by state and municipal investments, aims to reduce conflicts between vehicular and railway traffic. The construction, awarded to Consorcio Ingenieros de Guanajuato S.A. de C.V., is expected to last approximately 15 months and includes urban improvements such as green areas and LED lighting.
