Suspension bridge at Río Cuale reopens after storm damage

With an investment of just over $235,000 thousand pesos, Puerto Vallarta inaugurated the rehabilitation works of the suspension bridge that connects the Isla del Cuale with the municipal market, by the Encino street, giving greater security and better connectivity to who come to this area.

In the company of local business owners and neighbors, the mayor toured the new infrastructure that was renewed in its entirety by the City Council, using quality materials giving them greater stability for a safe crossing.

Some tenants of the Isla del Cuale, such as Mrs. Rosa Raquel Espinoza Díaz, acknowledged the work done in this area, as well as the support they have received so far from the local government. “It has greatly benefited the island, it is a privilege and an honor for us; It really is an investment that needed to be made; It is a benefit for all the people of Vallarta, but it is something so beautiful for tourists because they have a lot of fun on the bridge,” she said.

The bridge collapsed in August due to heavy rains and flooding of the Río Cuale.
