#SICT.- The construction of the Nichupté Vehicular Bridge, a flagship project of the Ministry of Infrastructure, Communications, and Transportation (SICT) in Cancún, Quintana Roo, which will provide access to the hotel zone of this tourist destination, benefiting 1.3 million residents, is 77.8 percent complete.

This bridge, which will be one of the longest over a lagoon in Latin America, was confirmed by the Secretary of Infrastructure, Communications, and Transportation, Jesús Antonio Esteva Medina, who accompanied President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo and the Governor of Quintana Roo, Mara Lezama Espinosa, on a tour this Friday to verify the technological process used for the ecological protection of the lagoon.

It has a total length of 11.2 kilometers and will connect Cancún’s hotel zone with Colosio Boulevard and Tulum, Kabah, and Bonampak Avenues.

It consists of an 8.8-kilometer bridge; a 103-meter metal arch; two access interchanges measuring 2.4 kilometers—one on the Luis Donaldo Colosio Boulevard side and the other on Kukulcán Boulevard—as well as a bicycle lane, pedestrian walkways, bus stops, and a lighting system.

The structure will have a 14.9-meter-wide crown, allowing for three lanes of traffic: one in each direction and one reversible lane, which will be adjusted according to traffic demand.
