The number 1 thing Santo Domingo Este needs is the train that will connect the air port to DN crossing all of SDE, and extending line 2 to Los mameyes. That will be the biggest game changer

A monorail from Las Americas Airport (AILA) to SDE and the National District (la capital) is desperately needed. It will alleviate a lot of traffic and would make it cheaper, safer, elegant, and faster to go to and from El Distrito Nacional.

I think that that is in the planning phase, but it will go from AILA to the National District (the capital) with several stops in between including SDE.

@@cristiandiaz6333 yeah luckily this government has been much more aggressive with mass transit. 2012-2020 the previous government wasted a lot of time and only did 3.4 km and 1 cable car. The president already presented the 3.2 billion dollar plan that will implanted within the next 5 year (public private investment)

El Faro a Colon needs a stop. Los Mameyes and la Isabelita, Maquiteria, have a draw though and that that they high crime areas and you do not want tourists to be too expose to that unless it gets cleaned up and more police presence available.

Hopefully in the future they convert two of the lanes for public buses transportation and create another lane for a train that can divert traffic jams and into the airport

@@rafm3068 The problem with riding bicycles in the city is the relentlessly hot climate, especially during peak summer months. Many streets/roads in Santo Domingo are not well-shaded, therefore most people prefer to ride in their car because of the comfort of air conditioning. Air pollution in highly congested areas can also be a downside when riding bicycles.

Bike riding in DR is an old practice that has been reviving over the last 7 years. The number of biciclist in DR has been growing every year and they need specific areas for them to do so more safely. Nonetheless, in the Capital (National District), there are several parks where people often ride bicycles such as El Mirador del Sur, Mirador Norte, Jardin Botanico, and El Malecon on Sundays.

Thos dividers have the purpose of preventing pedestrians from crossing that highway everywhere instead of those specific cuttings and thus lessen the chance of someone getting hit by a car. It also prevents cars from being parked there at night when it becomes more of a free fall for parking especially in areas with many bars, discotheques (as they are called in DR still), lounges, and restaurants. Sadly, drivers in DR can be somewhat blind to the normal driving and parking rules that occur during the daytime and when more traffic policing is visual.

I agree. It was supposed to be an express route, like all autopistas, but the use and misuse by people and developers Made it the hybrid it is Now. Btw, not a good design, having one side with marginal lanes and the rest all together, fallo de diseño or someone was too lazy to have the electric towers be moved either to the side or the Center

The reason why there are so many of those hotels is because prostitution is legal in the Dominican Republic. If a senator's wife feels like she wants to work as a prostitute, there is nothing he can do, because she is not breaking the laws. Now with the new streets, you may see an increase of that business in that area

Hey there! Santo Domingo Este it's about 7 km from downtown. The issue is not the distance but the awful traffic. There are always PLENTY of apartments in the area for rent. Safety depends on the exact area you decide to rent in, just take normal common sense precautions when going out, and you should be fine
