Bridge for the Yaque documents construction of a modern bridge replacing an old timber crossing on the major highway between Santo Domingo and Montecristi. Spanning the Yaque del Norte and opening access to the fertile northern plain, the project emphasizes practical design, structural steel, high-tensile wire strands, measured load performance, and concrete placement, finishing, and curing as work progresses on schedule.
