en.Wedoany.com Reported - The Private Investment Promotion Agency (ProInversión) has disclosed that the Provincial Municipality of Nazca, in the Ica region of Peru, has signed an agreement with a private company to implement the "Creation of Urban Transportation Services at the Santo Domingo Bridge in the Nazca District, Nazca Province, Ica Region" project. The project will be financed with an investment of 9.2 million soles through the "Works for Taxes" mechanism.

The main scope of the project involves the construction of a 38-meter-long bridge and auxiliary works, including vehicle and pedestrian access, an overpass, concrete retaining walls for infrastructure protection and stabilization, and general auxiliary works. The project will also install a special public lighting system consisting of 36 units to enhance safety and visibility in the area.

Denisse Miralles, Director of Decentralized Investments at ProInversión, stated that the construction period for this intervention is 240 days. It is expected to benefit 82,000 Peruvians, effectively reducing travel times, facilitating residents' access to basic services, markets, and production areas, and connecting local archaeological sites of high value.

Denisse Miralles pointed out that improving urban transportation can revitalize the local economy, connect production with markets, strengthen tourism, and create better conditions for family development. She emphasized that the project also helps improve road safety, a key aspect for protecting lives and reducing accident risks.

The project was awarded on April 15, 2026. The signing of the agreement marks an important milestone in establishing coordinated working relationships among the public entity, the private company, and ProInversión, with the goal of ensuring the works are completed within the scheduled timeframe and according to established quality standards.

Jorge Bravo, Mayor of Nazca Province, emphasized that this signing represents the fifth "Works for Taxes" agreement promoted by his administration with technical support from ProInversión. The municipality is prioritizing a series of projects through the "Works for Taxes" mechanism, including the San Carlos Bridge, the paving of 19 kilometers of road leading to the Cahuachi Ceremonial Center, comprehensive water supply and drainage projects in the San Luis, Pajonal, Pajonal Bajo, and Micaela Bastidas residential areas, furniture renewal for educational institutions, and riverbank protection works.
