SANTO DOMINGO.-The Ministry of Public Works and Communications (MOPC) reported that today, Saturday, October 7, work will be carried out to place a pedestrian bridge over the 6 de Noviembre highway, in the Las Arenas community, near Quita Sueño, in Haina, so a temporary detour of vehicular traffic will be enabled there.
The detour on that section, which will be in both directions, will take place from 6:00 pm on Saturday the 7th of this month to 6:00 am on Sunday the 8th of October 2023.
A note from the MOPC's Communications and Press Department highlights that while these works are being carried out, traffic will be diverted along the service road of the same highway, for which two lanes have been enabled.
The work to be carried out by the MOPC is part of the design and construction work of the Road Infrastructure Improvement Project in the North-South connections of Santo Domingo.
Vehicles traveling on the 6 de Noviembre highway towards Santo Domingo must access the detours established by the MOPC in these cases.
