## Description

In Limón province the route covers Limón canton (Limón, Valle La Estrella, Matama districts), Talamanca canton (Bratsi, Sixaola, Cahuita districts).

## History

[edit]

### Binational Sixaola River Bridge

[edit]

The Binational Sixaola River Bridge, located at the southeast end of Route 36, is a bridge over the Sixaola River, the national border between Costa Rica and Panama.

The bridge is under construction as of October 2019 with a projected delivery date of March 2020[2] and being supervised by the United Nations Office for Project Services; it will span 260 meters, 16.4 meters wide, one lane in each way, with bicycle lanes and sidewalks. Migration checkpoints in both countries were moved to align with the new bridge, and the old railroad bridge was dismantled to construct the new road bridge.[3]
