The authorities expect a pilot traffic program to bring relief to those accustomed to turtle pace driving as they commute into the National District from northern Santo Domingo. The Ministry of Public Works and the National Institute of Traffic and Ground Transport (Intrant) have set up a counterflow lane between Km 14 and Km 9, where John F.
