President Abinader Inaugurates New Highway in San Pedro de Macorís, Boosting Rural Connectivity President Luis Abinader recently inaugurated the first phase of the Gautier-Guayabal highway in San Pedro de Macorís, Dominican Republic. This 9-kilometer road is a significant development project aimed at improving infrastructure and connectivity in the province's rural communities. The inauguration ceremony was attended by government officials, local residents, and community leaders. One attendee stated, "This road is a game-changer for us. It will make accessing schools, markets, and healthcare much easier." Another official added, "This is a testament to the government's commitment to improving the lives of all Dominicans, regardless of where they live." The project, undertaken by the Ministry of Public Works and Communications (MOPC), directly benefits communities such as Guayabal, Gautier, and Santana. The improved road network is expected to stimulate economic activity and improve the quality of life for hundreds of families in the region. The completion of this project marks a significant step towards bridging the gap between urban and rural areas in the Dominican Republic.
