The section of the entrance to Pan de Azúcar by the Interbalnearia route is under construction for the construction of the “Upper Passage” on route 37 so the Ministry of Transport and Public Works will implement changes in the circulation, as reported in a statement.
As of Friday, December 10, those who pass through this area must follow the following guidelines. For those who go from the West (Montevideo) to the East (Maldonado) the circulation will be through the Interbalnearia route (route 93) passing under the bridge of route 37, this section being in two directions of circulation for approximately 1,000 meters. The entrance to Piriápolis will be through a new branch before the route 37 bridge, the statement said.
For those who continue in the eastern direction, the ministry explained that they must drive through the Interbalnearia, go under the bridge on Route 37 and respect the “road changes” on the way. This section is also two-way.
The entrance to Route 9 -with the direction of Pan de Azúcar or the department of Rocha- “will be through the existing branch passing the Bridge of Route 37 to the right”. The ministry assured that provisional signage is in place with the destinations that correspond to this new construction stage.
“Users are requested to take appropriate precautions, circulating at a maximum speed of 45 k / h, respecting the existing work signs “stressed from the ministry.
Drivers who are in a journey from East to West and want to enter the Piriápolis spa, they must do it by the auxiliary road, “as it was established to the left,” according to the report.
