The no left turn saga continues, Phase three

The Abinader administration’s Transportation Cabinet has decreed the start of the Third Phase of the No-Left-Turn program aimed at reducing traffic jams in the Greater Santo Domingo area. All this is a part pf the “DR gets Moving” initiative.

Over the weekend, signs were up indicating no left turns on such major streets as Abraham Lincoln, and Winston Churchill. Maximo Gomez is also part of the new measures.
