The Secretariat of Communications and Transport (SCT) in Mexico has announced that roads and bridges in Guerrero affected by hurricanes during September 2013 will be repaired by mid-May 2014. However, repairs on the Barra Vieja bridge, costing US$38.27 million (MXN 500 million), will only be completed on 15 September 2014.
Other projects are also planned for Guerrero, including school and housing schemes, following the hurricane damage. Guerrero will receive funds of more than MXN 30bn from the central government during 2014 to carry out hurricane repair works. In addition, a total of 1,035 roads and 134 bridges in rural areas will be completed during 2014, while works are also expected to start in Mexico City and on the express link via Cuernavaca to improve access between the Federal District and Acapulco.
