The FCC-built San Marcos Bridge features in the CMIC and MXI journals

The Gilberto Borja Navarrete viaduct, awarded the 2014 Lieberman Prize for 'Best Works Project' by the Mexican Chamber of Construction Industry, was the predominant work project of two articles in two national construction journals: the CMIC journal and the MXI journal.

The FCC-built San Marcos Bridge features in the CMIC and MXI journals

In both, the articles touch upon the complexity involved in the design and construction of this FCC Construcción-built road work. It entails an 850-m-long bridge with 180 m headlamps. It is made up of a cantilever advancing system with in-situ segments. The viaduct's fourth pillar measures 225 metres tall and is the second tallest in the world and the tallest upon which a bridge with a double cantilever system has been built.

The San Marcos Viaduct, which was renamed Gilberto Borja Navarrete Bridge in September 2014, forms part of the Mexican-Tuxpan motorway that joins the port at north Veracruz with the metropolitan area of Mexico City.

The main structure of the bridge was completed in December 2011 and the full road section drew to a close in September 2014.
