Road safety and infrastructure in Entre Ríos
Overview
In the first half of 2026, the Observatorio de Seguridad Vial de Entre Ríos reported 72 road fatalities and 401 accidents involving victims. The data indicated that men accounted for over 70% of deaths, while the 15 to 24 age group represented 22% of fatalities. Deaths were most concentrated in the departments of Paraná, Concordia, Colón, and Gualeguaychú.
National Deputy Blanca Osuna criticized the management of road infrastructure funds, alleging that resources from the Integrated Road System (SIS-VIAL) are being diverted into financial investments rather than road maintenance. Osuna claimed that only 20% of national funds intended for road infrastructure have been executed, accusing the administration of using fuel tax revenues to maintain financial surpluses instead of improving provincial routes.
Regarding legislative developments, the Entre Ríos Senate has continued analyzing a unified bill to establish a Regime for Road Consortia (Consorcios Camineros) through its joint commissions for Public Works, Waterways, Ports, and Multimodal Transport. In August 2026, senators approved reports for projects concerning these road consortiums, as well as projects regarding municipal category changes.
