New Peruvian road tunnel project planned

In Peru plans are being drawn up for a new road tunnel. The aim of the project is to link Chaclacayo with Huarochiri. The tunnel will run between the Ricardo Palma Bridge and the Los Angeles Bridge. The aim of the project is to reduce traffic volumes and congestion on the Carretera Central road. The cost of the new tunnel has yet to be revealed. Improvement work is also being planned for a 19km stretch of road between the Los Angeles Bridge and Avenida Las Torres.
