The maintenance works announced by the National Department of Transport Infrastructure () will directly affect some of the most sensitive stretches of the federal network in Acre – regions where traffic, especially in the Amazon winter, tends to be a challenge. The information is from the Official Gazette of the Union (DOU) this Monday (23).

The R$121.5 million contract provides for interventions on around 80.8 kilometers of the BR-364 and BR-307 highways, focusing on the stretch that connects the Juruá Valley to areas close to the border with Peru.

Included are segments between the Rio Liberdade, BR-307 junctions and points close to the municipality of Marechal Thaumaturgo, as well as important accesses in the Rodrigues Alves region.

In practice, they are strategic areas for the movement of people, transportation of food and access to basic services – but they face recurring problems, such as quagmires, worn-out asphalt and traffic difficulties during rainy periods.
