Details of the Bioceanic Corridor
The governor explained that the Bioceanic Route involves not only the construction of the bridge, but also 13 kilometers of access, a project as complex as the bridge itself. Furthermore, paving in Paraguay is underway, led by the Paraguayan federal government.The completion of this corridor will enable connections with Chilean ports, bringing significant benefits to the export of Brazilian products, especially animal proteins such as chicken, pork, and processed meats.
Riedel emphasized that the route will also facilitate the entry of products from Asian markets.
One of the main benefits will be a 14-day reduction in ship travel time between Chilean ports and Asia, compared to current routes. This time savings will translate into greater competitiveness for Brazilian products in the international market.From CNNGet help: Red Carpet LATAM | Bioceanic Road Corridor
