Overview
- The pedestrian bridge was temporarily closed on October 22 after videos showing an apparently sunken glass tile prompted a preventive review.
- Officials said the work focused on renewing silicone joints between the glass tiles and cleaning, and the inspection reported no structural failures or breakages.
- The municipality described the transparent walkway as four layers of glass plus a geomembrane over metal beams, asserting the system remains safe.
- Perú21 issued a rectification after initially reporting broken panels, acknowledging the closure was for maintenance.
- The bridge reopened by October 24 for pedestrians and cyclists, with authorities scheduling additional cleaning of the exterior glass walls as next steps.
