    Many feel that 5 tolls along this stretch of highway, would increase travel time waiting in long lines, and are also calling it a make work project so elites and preferred companies can line their pockets with more money.

    “The government understands that we must give clear explanations on various questions that have arisen,โ€ said Chinchilla.

    The president called on communities to wait for those answers that would give the government time “to address the debate and consider the information.โ€

    Tthe road would be extended only two miles between the Datsun and Juan Pablo II Bridge, as confirmation of the Secretary of the National Concessions Council (CNC), Edwin Rodriguez, Chinchilla said “we need to think beyond what is the want of each and other communities … I am convinced that with this road is a win … because all Costa Rica this highway has become the worst โ€ฆand why transit 90 thousand vehicles per day, , “she stressed.

    The president insisted that the award is necessary because of the importance of road impacts on various topics such as in the case of tourism, education, trade and free zones.
    “How are you going to respond to demands of these neighbors (west of Alajuela) zones calling for Gracia, Palmares and San Ramon? Nobody wants to go to these cantons while we continue the road to disaster … In addition we will remember something important … we must do something urgent Virilla bridge, with the asphalt and expanding roads … so the most important thing is to ask quiet and listen to the explanations, “said Chinchilla.yores changes.

    Most people in these cantons, actually donโ€™t consider the road a disaster though. Traffic flows are a little slow in the mornings and even rush, as is all major routes in and out of Central Valley, but in general people in these areas consider the highway good.

    Despite the statements of the president, the concessions contract does not provide extensive expansions and in the case of the bridge Virilla arrangements will be for the Ministry of Public Works and Transport, according to statements of the Minister, Pedro Castro, who indicated that the works would start from April. In addition, various sectors including union-MOPT-have claimed that the road could be built by MOPT own without concession.
