Executive Project of the 1.1 section of Asuncion´s BRT

CSI Ingenieros conducted the detailed engineering that comprises the final engineering design of the Major System - BRT Project - Central Corridor, in the section between the intersections of Tte. César Díaz Pefaur Street with Av. Stella Maris up to the intersection of Luis Alberto de Herrera Street with Brasil Street. An alternative return route was also included from Luis Alberto de Herrera and Hernandarias streets, continuing down Hernandarias street up to Dr. Luis Garcete Street, and from the latter up to the intersection with Don Bosco Street, from where it coincides with the rest of the outbound route.
