National Route 15 also known as Corredor Bioceánico
[1] (officially, PY15) is one of 22 national routes of
Paraguay.
It has an extension of 531 km, in the middle of the
Paraguayan Chaco. Along with routes
PY14 and
PY16, it is one of the three routes that the
Alto Paraguay department will possess for the first time, helping it to come out of isolation. At the beginning of the section of this route, the international bridge that will connect Carmelo Peralta with
Porto Murtinho (
Brazil) is under construction, which will be financed by
Itaipu.
[2]
This highway (currently under construction) is expected to become an international logistics center by becoming part of the
Bi-Oceanic Corridor, and being the shortest passage between the Chilean ports of
Antofagasta and
Iquique on the
Pacific Ocean and the Brazilian port of
Santos on the
Atlantic Ocean.
[3]
With the Resolution N° 1090/19, [4] it obtained its current number and elevated to National Route in 2019 by the MOPC (Ministry of Public Works and Communications).
In February 2022, Paraguay inaugurated 275 km of the road (about half of the route), connecting Carmelo Peralta (Alto Paraguay), on the border with Brazil, to Loma Plata (Boquerón), in the center of the country. [5]
