An article, "Temen que Constanza quede incomunicada", in the Friday, July 16th, edition of El Nacional caught my eye about the deteriorating condition of the mountain road that extends from the autopista Duarte to Constanza. A group of Constanza civic officials, organizations, religeous, and others gave mention of potential landslides on the road have threatened to isolate the area. This alarm is closing off supplies and tourist trade access. Various shippers of goods have suspended transport for fear of going off the road. PJT last traveled the road October last and observed even in a good state the artery has to be traveled with extreme caution. My question to one who may have used it recently, has it really deteriorated to such a state that the main users are now balking at traversing it? Is it more of a political posture to get the attention of the incoming government to Constanza's need to improve the road infrastructure..... or the both of the previous?
