Say good-bye to gridlock here:
But even MORE gridlock for the 18 months of construction.
Will be excellent when it's done.
What's the progress on the bypass? We see some workers at Hispanamerica when we go to PriceSmart at the autopista...that will also help the traffic...

there would be an end to grid lock if Dominican drivers would simply learn not stop at red and not block the intersections.. do not block the intersections.. we learned in nyc. they can learn it here as well.. a massive public education campaign followed by ticketing. don't block the block
And the $$$ will come from...where?
I'll settle for good roads. The rest can be mitigated.
The Misnisterio de obras publicas recently announced that the Santiago bypass will be completed by February 21th 2014. I truly hope that they're not just talking out their a$$, the city is desperate need of the bypass. Danilo also promised many other projects for the city, such as the construction of a big central park in the old Cibao airport, and many more elevados, and tunnels in key intersections.
Much more likely that it will be finished exactly on February 30th 2014 than on February 21st.
The Santiago bypass beltway is currently being worked on.
The Estrella Sadhala will become an express road, no stop lights for the center lanes all along the city. Think like the Corredor Duarte in SD. All bypasses, tunnels, etc...
That picture posted above is just but a single one of the many intersections that will be addressed in the coming months in Santiago.
Santiago will end up with 3 corredores that will crisscross the city and cut travel time from hours to minutes from all points. The traffic flow will also be addressed, given how narrow many of the streets in Santiago are. Most of the streets that feed or discharge traffic from major roads will be turned into one way streets and patterns of circulation established alongside the traffic lights to achieve a constant flow to avoid gridlock.
