Nine National Routes To
Get Safer
The Contraloría General
de la República
(Comptroller's office)
yesterday approved a
contract for CONAVI to
properly signal some
946.4 kilometres of
highways and install
cat's eyes.
The cat's eye is a
safety device used in
road construction and
was the first of a range
of raised pavement
markers. It originated
from the UK in 1933 and
is used all over the
world.
The roads that will see
the improvements are the
routes around Ramón, San
Carlos, La Fortuna,
Ciudad Quesada, Aguas
Zarcas, El Tanque,
Chachagua, Pérez Zeledón
and Paso Canoas.
The work is expected to
begin Semana Santa
(Easter Week) and will
cost ¢2 billion colones. |
