At Km 173 on this highway, Rutas del Este has created a service area for the 74 vendors who previously sold their goods at the side of the road.
The PY 02 is the most important road corridor in the country
The Ruta PY 02 highway, which will connect Asunción and Ciudad del Este, traverses the Central, Cordillera and Alto Paraná departments, and is a key project for the development of Paraguay. This corridor concentrates 65% of the country’s population and 70% of its economic activity. This project, 76% brownfield and 24% greenfield, executed by Sacyr Concesiones, will allow for a safer, more fluid traffic circulation.

A partnership to promote development
The PY 02 was the first Public-Private Partnership (P3) project we undertook in Paraguay. Its development is vital for the growth of Paraguay’s private sector, and it will draw in private capital from abroad. It will also bring new professional opportunities for companies and workers.
The consortium developing the project, called Rutas del Este, is led by Sacyr Concesiones and also involves Ocho A.
