I think I have it right but I'm not sure. I live in sector Ure?as, km 18, above Las Americas. A store I want to visit, Omega Tech, is on Avenida Kennedy, km 8.5.

I think someone told me that Parque Independencia in sector Zona Colonial, as a reference point, is km 0. So km 1 will be the first increment, one set running east (where I live) and the other running west, where this store is located.

By this reckoning, this business would be 26.5 km from my house.

Do I have it right? What's the terminal point on each end? Anything else I need to know?
