The Rumichaca international bridge between Ecuador and Colombia is set to close for traffic from 6 PM on Saturday, March 7 to 6 AM on Monday, March 9, 2020. This closure comes as a precaution for the elections for the Senate and Chamber of Representatives taking place in Colombia on Sunday, March 8. During this period, authorities will not allow the crossing of people, vehicles, or goods, urging travelers to adjust their plans accordingly. Travelers to Colombia from Ecuador should consider making their journeys before the shutdown on Friday.
