The inaugural crossing of the bridge, which connects Foz do Iguaçu (Brazil) and Presidente Franco (Paraguay), marked a symbolic moment for the Triple Frontier region. The video record shows the moment the first automobile crosses the newly opened structure.

The Border Vicinal Traffic Document (DTVF) is the document used for vehicle circulation in border areas, allowing mobility between the countries without the need for a traditional passport.
