This IS good news. - I took Caribe Tours last week from Santiago (on my way to SDQ). I got off at KM9 took the Metro to Gomez station and then Uber to the A/P. It went very smoothly however once the 2nd line is open I would be able to take it to the end near Mega Centro and then Uber.
I can't wait for the S.D. bypass to be completed so that when I am driving Santiago to the east I can bypass the capitol all together.

I am not very good knowing locations by KM but would KM9 be avenida Luperon the Maria Montez Line 2 station? If so without a doubt that is a smart move. Much faster getting into SD centro than remaining on Caribe Tours bus. I usually grab a small bite to eat at "chaos plaza" then hop on the Metro. Only thing is Metro bus does not make a stop there........ufffff

I surely hope they will be adding additional cars to Metro Line 2 because once the extension opens plus the Teleferico gets into operation they will certainly need more cars.
