The Ponte dos Macuxis [pt] over the Branco River was completed on 29 August 1975.[4] The Takutu River Bridge was completed in 2009, and provides access to the road network of Guyana.[5] The bridge switches between left- and right-hand drive automatically.[6]

In 2018, the section between Boa Vista and the border with Guyana was fully paved.[2] As of 2020, a section of almost 80 kilometres between Bonfim and Normandia is still unpaved.[3]
