Bridge 路 Uruguay
How much did General Artigas Bridge cost to build?
The General Artigas Bridge is the cantilever road bridge of about 2,350 m over the Uruguay River between Paysandu in Uruguay and Colon in Argentina, 8 m wide with two lanes and a 140 m main span, awarded to an Argentine-Uruguayan consortium on 10 September 1970 and inaugurated on 10 December 1975. The Spanish Wikipedia infobox gives its cost as 7.4 million dollars without a source, while a Uruguayan site writes that a figure of 1,105 million dollars was circulated, an amount it does not verify.
