The Madeira River, which bathes the BR-364, continues to go up in the state of Rondônia and has already surpassed the mark of 16 meters, making the waters approach the highway, which connects the state of Acre to the rest of the country.

Aerial images show an excerpt from BR already surrounded by the waters, which have not yet reached the road due to the change works carried out on the road after the historic flood of 2014.
The interventions raised the highway level up to two meters, ensuring greater road safety. The Santo Antônio Energisa Plant was responsible for the work in a 3.5 km stretch in Jaci-Paraná.
According to the Rondônia Civil Defense, the state’s rivers should continue to rise at least by early April.
In the state, the Federal Highway Police of Rondônia (PRF) issued a statement to drivers about flooding points on BR-425, and asked small cars not to cross the highway between Nova Mamoré and Guajará-Mirim.
