The Municipality of Concordia, through the Undersecretariat of Road Works and Street Maintenance, has intervened in around 80 unpaved blocks with sanitation work using basalt stone, which allows for greater durability, better transitability, and prevents erosion during days of heavy rainfall.
The works are being carried out within the framework of the Infrastructure and Development Plan towards the Bicentennial, with more than 354 million pesos having been invested so far, using own resources.
One of the sectors intervened is that of Paula Albarracín and Vito Moreno streets, where the mayor Francisco Azcué stated that with the objective of improving transitability, “basalt stone of two sizes has been used. This ensures that on days of heavy rain, the water does not damage the street, as greater stability and durability are achieved, especially in the gutters”.
“So far, about 8000 tons have been purchased and are being distributed in those streets most affected. We are reaching more neighborhoods with our own machinery and equipment, providing responses to the demands that are being presented to us,” highlighted Azcué.
For his part, the Undersecretary of Road Works and Street Maintenance, Bruno Gaztambide, explained that “a month ago, road surface restoration work was carried out, since being a natural slope, it tends to erode due to the amount of sand. With the placement of 30-90 diameter basalt stone, the goal is to preserve the gutters in the face of heavy rains.”
