It is a highway of 120 km / h of project speed, with 2 roads, with 2 lanes of 3.5 m, right shoulder, 2.5 m, left shoulder of 1 m, outer berm of 1 m and medium 10 m
In the section two links are projected to connect with the autonomous roads RM-424 and RM-425.
The project includes 21 structures, which are distributed in 4 viaducts, 5 overpasses, 11 underpasses and a wildlife pass.
As a technical novelty the project includes the construction of a rigid firm of continuous reinforced concrete instead of the traditional firm with bituminous mixtures.
It is a pavement executed in 2 layers: the first of 19 cm of concrete HF-4,5 and the second of 5 cm of concrete HF-5,0 to form the rolling layer with aggregate of high resistance to polishing.
The previous 2 layers would rest on a 15 cm layer of lean concrete.
The project requires the execution of service roads that guarantee accessibility, permeability of the territory, and the continuity of agricultural and neighborhood road networks
