RD$800,000 per space at UASD parking
President Leonel Fernandez attended the inauguration of a modern multi-story parking garage yesterday at the Universidad Autonoma de Santo Domingo, the state university. The Presidency Public Works Supervisory Office (OISOE) built the parking lot at a reported cost of RD$1 billion.
Can somebody explain why a university needs a car park like this? This is a perfect example where the money would have been better spent on improvements to the public transport system - those feeder bus routes + it is in walking distance from the Metro. This development will just generate more congestion.
