New Road To Ease Escazú
- San José Traffic
Congestion
Residents of Escazú can
soon sigh a bit of
relief to the constant
and growing traffic
congestion with the
completion of the road
that connects Bello
Horizonte to Hatillo and
the Circunvalación.
The yellow bridge over
the river Tiribí has
been built for some
time, however, the 1.7
kilometre road between
Bello Horizonte in
Escazú that connects to
Hatillo 8 and the
Circunvalación and
Sabana Sur was never
built.
It is estimated that the
road will be ready in
about 11 months and will
ease traffic for some
50.000 drivers daily
that move between Escazú
and San José.
According to Álvaro
Muelas, director general
de Autopistas del Sol,
the contractor that is
making the major
improvements on the
Prospero Fernandez
highway at the Escazú
intersection, which
forms part of the San
José - Caldera highway,
the rod completion will
cost some us$9 million
dollars. |
