Connecting the south, north and east through Santo Domingo

José Ramón Peralta / El Caribe

Administrative Minister of the Presidency José Ramón Peralta announced that the government has programmed the start of the third stretch of the Santo Domingo Bypass Road (Circunvalación de Santo Domingo) for next week. The road expedites east-west and north-south traffic making it possible to go from Haina Port, Multimodal Caucedo Port, or Las Americas International Airport in all four directions without passing through the city of Santo Domingo.

Speaking at the Presidency, in the presence of Public Works Minister Gonzalo Castillo, Peralta said that once completed in all its extension, the road will link the south, east and Cibao with the Greater Santo Domingo, including the National District, the Multimodal Caucedo Port and Haina Port. The third part of the road is the missing link for connecting the south near Haina Port, the north, at km. 24 of the Duarte Highway; the east, at Las Americas Expressway and the northeast at the intersection to the Samaná road.

Peralta called the road “one of the most transcendental built in the history of the Dominican Republic.”
