Two new Brazil-Paraguay bridges being built

Two new bridges are planned to connect Brazil and Paraguay. The new bridges are intended to improve trade and transport between the two countries. One of the bridges will be built to span the Parana River and link the Brazilian city of Foz do Iguacu in Parana State with the Paraguayan city of Puerto Presidente Franco. The other bridge will span the Paraguay River and link Porto Mustinho in Brazil’s Matto Grosso State with the Paraguayan city of Carmelo Peralta.
