As reported, all parties recognize the necessity of relocating the bus stop. A pedestrian walkway will be constructed at the site to connect the north and south sections of the Duarte Highway at kilometer 9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The engineer explained that the existing structure is in poor condition and that building a temporary structure is the most practical solution. The feasibility of constructing or relocating the terminal has been hindered by the need for mutual agreement between the government and Antonio Marte due to the terminal&#8217;s value and the tradition of many passengers from the Cibao region that use the terminal installed on the green area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gonz\u00e1lez affirmed that negotiations for the acquisition of land for a permanent terminal are well advanced. Once the relocation is complete, the temporary structure will be dismantled, and the area will be landscaped. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Marte, president of the National Confederation of Transportation (Conatra), has invited Morrison to accompany him on a visit to the kilometer 9 construction site next Monday, 29 July 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recently, transportation entrepreneur Antonio Marte had stated that despite the ongoing expansion work at kilometer 9, the terminal Conatra operates will remain in its current location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the bus stop is relocated, the present temporary structure will be removed and the area will be landscaped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Read more:<br><a previewlistener=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.diariolibre.com\/actualidad\/ciudad\/2024\/07\/24\/construiran-una-terminal-de-autobuses-de-manera-provisional\/2796786\">Diario Libre <\/a><br><a previewlistener=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=wlfPdt2OjaE\">El Gobierno de la Ma\u00f1ana interview with Antonio Marte <\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/dr1.com\/news\/2024\/07\/23\/km-9-roadworks-at-a-standstill-conatra-depot-is-not-going-anywhere\/\">DR1 News <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>25 July 2024<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After senator and transport kingpin Antonio Marte (Conatra) met with the new director of the National Institute of Transport and Transit (Intrant), Milton Morrison, the Ministry of Public Works has announced it will be continuing with the plans to build 14 lanes in the vicinity of the government-owned green area where Marte built and has &hellip; <\/p>\n<p class=\"link-more\"><a href=\"https:\/\/dr1.com\/news\/2024\/07\/25\/transport-kingpin-antonio-marte-sort-of-reaches-agreement-with-new-intrant-director-milton-morrison\/\" class=\"more-link\">Read more\u2026<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[330,3],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dr1.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/220353"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dr1.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dr1.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dr1.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dr1.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=220353"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/dr1.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/220353\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":220433,"href":"https:\/\/dr1.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/220353\/revisions\/220433"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dr1.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=220353"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dr1.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=220353"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dr1.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=220353"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
