The expansion of the Santo Domingo Metro to Los Alcarrizos is a significant milestone for the city\u2019s transit system. The 7.3-kilometer extension connects the Mar\u00eda Montez station in Km. 9 of the Duarte Highway to the new Los Alcarrizos terminal, further to the north, featuring five new elevated stations. This project aims to significantly reduce commute times and enhance mobility for over 1,000,000 residents in the western metropolitan area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
