Minister of Public Works Diandino Peña announced that modern toll booths will be installed at the main exits of Santo Domingo. The Ministry contracted the toll booths for RD$142 million with the Consorcio MSB and Ascom Trindel Corporation. The new toll booths will be installed at the same points where they are located today: Km. 25 of the Autopista Duarte (heading north); at km. 20 of the Autopista de Las Americas (heading east) and km. 12 of Haina (heading west). A new booth will also be built at the new San Cristóbal-Santo Domingo highway. The toll booths will have five lanes in each direction. The four central lanes will be for fast moving light vehicles and will operate automatically.
