A road carries with it the idea of \u200b\u200bmobility and transformation. We pathways known as the mystic Santiago, Argentina's Route 40, American 66, which in return modified. Whoever follows the RSC-471, certainly not indifferent again.
Integrating a row Transbrasiliana (BR-153) from its zero km at an altitude of 612 m in Cassal Barros, the RSC-471 runs for 54 miles Plateau region of pines, Today more in remembrance. From there, the emphasis falls from elevation 538 to 79 in less than 10 km, passing through lush vegetation of hills, with streams embedded in basalts, as the Arroyo Francisco Alves, which was built on a viaduct portentous, preceded by large slopes so-called "topographic saddle," which challenged the ingenuity constructive.
From 63 km to its end, on the BR-471 overpass, the road runs through a region of plains, where stands the Pardinho River floodplain, silted up and sustained.
Many gathered for the RSC-471 became a reality, since rulers (Britto, Olivio, Rigotto, Yeda Crusius), MPs mayors, regional leaders, press, and anonymous to join those thousands. I remember the December 18, 2008, when the opening of the overpass / bridge over the creek covers to a crossroads, the governor signed the decision to complete the northern axis of the RSC-471. For it is there. We are about to pass through its 105 km. A victory for the "gauchos", reinforced by Crusius, who vigorously prioritized and coasted the financial and human resources.
Road, and make us more competitive with social and environmental gains to decline on the 110 km distance to the port of Rio Grande, and improve self-esteem, leads to something more: we will never be alone on the trail, we will always remember the commitment, inspiration and sweat of everyone who made possible her and enjoy. Are we watching the indigenous bodies deposited in the crevices of basalt rocks and it was found the ear, you hear the crows in the pines. We have the natural, built / destroyed, the sacred and sustained in the RSC-471 extended to involve us as one body.
Somewhere there is the Route 40, the road to Santiago, the sunny 66 and many others. We have the RSC-471.
