The project constructed a 250-m-long road bridge with two abutments and five piers, including revetments, pier protection works and 3. 6 km of access roads, on the Comoro River that runs through Dili City, the capital of Timor-Leste. It was built by a Japanese company, Tobishima Corporation. The CPLP Bridge (Portuguese: Ponte CPLP, Tetum: Ponte CPLP) (known during the construction phase as Comoro Bridges I and II) is a pair of two-lane road bridges in the suco of Comoro, a western suburb of Dili, capital city of Timor-Leste. The bridge carries Avenida Presidente Nicolau Lobato. In response to a request from the Government of Democratic Republic of Timor-Leste (“Timor-Leste”), the Government of Japan (“Japan”) decided to implement the Project for Construction of Upriver Comoro Bridge by grant aid in November 2015.
