ANALYSIS OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF CALÇOENE AND OIAPOQUE CITIES BY BR-156 IN THE PERIOD FROM 2002 TO 2016

Abstract

BR-156 in Amapá state has provoked numerous debates about how public resources were being applied to this federal highway. There are decades of investments, and in each sphere, federal or state government through this period, measures have been taken without achieving success to complete the complete extension of approximately 600 kilometers. The development of the municipalities of Calçoene and Oiapoque has directly involved the completion of the highway; thus, this represents significant changes in the headquarters of both cities, creating expectations for improvement in planning and endogenous development. This article aims to demonstrate how there were several obstacles in a period between 2002 and 2016, stoppages and other pertinent problems related to the conceived planning and that affected the development of the cities of Oiapoque and Calçoene.
