The drains of the Av. 27 de Febrero Expressway have proved that they work. The Minister of Public Works announced that construction on the 27 de Febrero Expressway will resume on Monday. He said the construction did not suffer damages from the passing of Georges. There had been speculation that the drainage would not work. Minister Diandino Peña said that the drains worked so well that the tunnels could be used as shelters against hurricanes in the future. He said there could be some delays in the completion of the work due to reorientation of the national budget to more priority reconstruction works.
