HOLY SUNDAY.-The traffic jams have become critical of the work to widen the slope of the 27 de Febrero Extension with Isabel Aguiar Avenue, turning the circulation of vehicles that cross this point into an odyssey, especially during peak traffic hours.
The lack of alternative routes for drivers to detour and speed up traffic, as well as signage and agents waiting to direct traffic, are some of the complaints that arise from people.
Something similar occurs at the kilometer 9 intersection, specifically below the slope of the Duarte Highway, where Public Works has been expanding that road to six lanes for months and in recent days has been placing New Jersey walls.
Although the traffic distributor lanes in the upper part have been opened as soon as possible, traffic congestion has not experienced a significant improvement, remains complicated and forces drivers at times to make detours through the Los Jardines sector in seeks to move forward.
“It is a terrible situation, a real war; Before crossing here it took us five to ten minutes, now we spend more than half an hour to get from the Colinas del Oeste residential area to the Central Electoral Board.
Look what happens: many bus drivers get in and make a return and the two lanes become narrower and narrower,” commented Eulalia Pimentel.
Like her, Milciades Guzmán from the Ureña residential complex commented that she has to leave at 6:30 am to connect with the 27 roundabout and the authorities have not created alternative routes, a situation that generates stress, while the agents only attend to the pedestrian crossing.
While the line of vehicles extends, the authorities of the National Institute of Traffic and Land Transportation coordinate measures with the City Council of the National District.
