The Ministry of Public Works has announced the opening of the Samana highway to the general public on 1 June. Not sure if the toll collections will start that day. The highway reduces the time to get to Samana from 4 hours to 1.5 hour, considerably saving at a time when gasoline is so expensive.
thanks for the heads up, where does this highway originate? better said, beginning and ending points...i figure Samana is the final destination, but where does it start?
About 5 kms east of Santo Domingo city. On the way to Las Americas International Airport (think it is Km. 14). Highway ends in Samana province, about half an hour from Samana city.
wow! only 5km east of the capital? thats crazy! i never noticed the construction....good stuff! i will be there later this year and perhaps headed that way then!
That's bull****!!! (I don't mean you Dolores, but their announcement)
I used that road last Thursday and there's no way that it'll be ready by that date.
