The bridge will span the Paraguay River and connect Asuncion with Chacoí and the project is now expected to cost US$296 million. Typical cost range for bridge work spans a broad spectrum: small residential approaches may start around $50,000, while mid-sized crossings commonly run $400,000-$2,000,000, and large highway bridges can exceed $4,000,000 depending on span and method.

Understanding these factors is crucial for estimating the per foot cost of a bridge.
