Authorities have begun dismantling a historic bridge connecting the Chacao and Baruta municipalities in the Caracas area. Baruta Mayor Darwin González has advised residents to expect disruptions during the removal process. The bridge, known as the “war bridge” (puente de guerra), is being relocated to La Guaira, a coastal city north of Caracas. The move is part of a larger project to bolster coastal defenses in La Guaira. Officials have not detailed the specific defensive measures planned, but the bridge’s structure will be repurposed. The dismantling is expected to cause traffic adjustments in the affected municipalities. Further details regarding the project’s timeline and impact are anticipated as the relocation progresses.
