OBJECTIVE

Improve the existing road network and access among towns, contributing to the development of these Apurímac and Cusco districts.

DESCRIPTION

There was a nearby regional highway. We evaluated if it was possible to connect the highway with the Cotabambas districts through an 80 kilometre long compacted road. We finally connected the highway from the Cungunya section, in Cotabambas, to the Cusco-Santo Tomás (capital of Chumbivilcas province) regional highway, running through Ccapacmarca, Mara and Challhuahuacho.
