San
José - Santa Ana Highway Completely Closed
At Multiplaza
The autopista Próspero Fernández near
Multiplaza Escazú will be completely closed
between 8am today and 10am Sunday to allow
work crews to continue critical work on the
Agres river bridge reconstruction. The
reconstruction of the bridge has been going
on for the better part of the year as part
of the widening of the autopista to six
lanes.
The bridge, west of Multiplaza and east of
Office Depot has been a constant problem for
traffic in the area.
Guillermo Matamoros, viceministro de
Concesiones del MOPT, added that the work to
be carried out today requires a complete
closure of the highway, in both directions,
a vibrations of the traffic on the bridge
could interfere with the construction of the
bridge.
Traffic from San José to Santa Ana can take
take the old road to Santa Ana through
Escazú or exit at the Texaco station, cross
under the bridge to Multiplaza and then back
onto the autopista at the Multiplaza or
Guachipelin intersections.
Traffic from Santa Ana to San José can
detour through Multiplaza to Office Depot
and back onto the autopista by the CIMA
hospital.
The Policia de Tránsito will on site to
direct traffic and ensure that the road
closure is respected.
No word, however, if the Autopistas de Sol
will eliminate the toll charges during the
road closure. We think not. |
