Road Closures Announced For Monday And

The Avenida Segunda and Paseo Colón in

for the arrival for the "antorcha de la
independencia" (independence torch).
The Ministerio de Obras Públicas y
Transportes (MOPT) advises that main road
into San José will be completely closed off

of students that is typical for independence
day celebrations. As well the roads around
the Parque Nacional will be closed off from
7am on Tuesday to allow a number of civic

Tuesday is a national holiday in Costa Rica,
the day celebrating Costa Rica's 188th
independence from Spain.
Banks and most businesses will be closed on
