Peru’s Gate to the World

The project consists of the execution of a bridge that will offer access to the new passenger terminal at Jorge Chávez International Airport, which connects both banks of the Rímac river, and is complemented with the necessary interchange to connect both Morales Duárez Avenue and Santa Rosa Avenue. In order to do so, it is planned to lower Duárez Avenue and build an elevated roundabout over it that connects directly with the bridge and Santa Rosa Avenue, for which side ramps are added from Morales Duárez Avenue to complete the connection.

The Santa Rosa Bridge is restricted both by the Obstacle Limiting Surface of the airport runway and by the avenues of the Rímac river. For this reason, a unique inverted structure with a total span of 65 meters has been designed. It will have a total of 4 lanes in each direction, side shoulders and paths that connect both banks of the river.

The actions on the river Rimac proposed in the study recover its course. The section between the Elmer Facuett and Néstor Gambetta Avenues is planned to be built up in such a way as to eliminate the existing side hillocks formed by anthropic material. This allows for the recovery of these areas for the future recreation of residents.

The planned interchange consists of an underpass with 4 lanes (2 in each direction) of 3.60 m each, a separator, shoulders and sidewalks, allowing a gauge of 5.50 m, which will maintain the continuity of Morales Duárez Avenue and its connection with the Port of El Callao. The Roundabout located over this underpass will have a total of 4 lanes offering connections with Santa Rosa Avenue, the Airport and the access ramps to Morales Duárez Avenue, in such a way that it is in this intersection where movements in the area are arranged.

The proposed actions are located in an urban area and, due to its relevance, being the entry gate to Peru, it calls for the need to complement and embellish the infrastructure. To this end, taking into account the Peruvian history and culture, it has been planned the architectural design of an element of the Nazca Lines such as the Hummingbird, which will also be visible from the air, just like the original.
