Closed bridge causes traffic jams

The closing for repairs of Duarte Bridge in Santo Domingo caused traffic chaos yesterday afternoon. Eastbound vehicles had to be detoured through Vicente Noble and Rafael Atoa streets. Only a small number of Metropolitan Transit Authority (AMET) agents were on duty in the area. The bridge was closed on 21 January at 10:00 pm. It will remain closed for repairs for a period of one month.
