2018 is loaded with improvements for the city

We know that Bogotá is being a key point for Colombian investments and even for Latin America, being a great option for prosperous businesses and short, medium and long term investments.

And it is time to take another step to improve the city, more specifically the mobility of the city. We are talking about the wave of road projects that are being planned for next year 2018. And the project is very feasible, because the city does need a road improvement, since it is proven that Bogotá can be paralyzed in terms of traffic due to a stranded bus of Transmilenio or a heavy rain.

Here we present a list of the most important works for Bogotá in the road aspect:

  • Expansions on the North Highway: This is an extension between 193 and 245, it is intended that the extension include platforms of 10 meters (with bike paths), a lane of TransMilenio in each direction, two additional lanes in each direction for a total of five lanes per direction, and intersections of the North Highway by Avenida del Polo and by Guaymaral Avenue.
  • Construction of the southern section of the Longitudinal Avenue of the West (ALO): It is intended that the work will implement an 11-kilometer route between the Bogotá River and 13th Street. The connection of the ALO and the City of Cali Avenue is also planned. , through the Avenida las Américas. The main objective is to enable the ALO from Soacha to 13th Street, seeking to eliminate the great congestion that is formed in the “Autopista Sur”.
  • Expansions in race 7a .: For race 7a. you want an extension between streets 182 and 245; looking that also, as in the North Highway, include platforms with bike paths, but in this case 9 meters. Also have three lanes in each direction between streets 182 and 201, and between streets 201 and 245 of two lanes in each direction.
  • Construction of an additional lane between the toll of the Andes and the Cajicá variant: It is planned to invest almost $ 460,000 million to intervene in 53 km.
  • The Electric Train: This project will start in Facatativá and will end in the Estación de la Sabana. It is hoped that this project will help mobility, since it will be able to reduce a little traffic from the west of the city to the north, in addition to one of its stations having a place in the new El Dorado II Airport, which will help displacement between a airport and another.
