The Ministry of Mobility reported that in order to advance the activities of the transfer of aqueduct parent networks, sewer backbone networks and minor and local aqueduct and sewerage networks, within the framework of the advance transfer of networks of the Bogotá Aqueduct and Sewerage Company (EAAB) for the works of the first line of the Bogotá Metro, authorized the closure of the eastern lane of the slow road in the south - north direction of carrera 68 avenue between 27th sur and transversal 53rd street.
The work activities will be carried out between April 12, 2022 and June 23, 2022, with 24-hour closing hours.
In this way, and in order to facilitate the execution of work activities and ensure safety for all road users, the Ministry of Mobility authorized the following Traffic Management Plan:
Transit of private vehicles
Users travelling in a South - North direction along Carrera 68 Avenue will continue to travel along the three lanes that will be enabled on the corridor.
Public transport transit
Public transport routes that run south - north along avenue carrera 68 will continue to travel along the two lanes that will be enabled on the slow road.
Public transport whereabouts
Public transport stops will have no change in their location.
Traffic pedestrians and bike-users
The existing infrastructure for pedestrians and cyclists will not suffer any type of damage; for this reason, users will be able to circulate normally through the infrastructure intended for them.
Recommendations for industry users
The Ministry of Mobility recommends that all users in the sector take this information into account and follow the signs with caution so that they can carry out their usual routes without any problems. Drivers are asked to walk with caution and abide by the signage provided in the area of influence.
While pedestrians, cyclists and drivers attend to the site signs, as well as the instructions and recommendations of traffic assistants and the personnel responsible for such activity.
It is noteworthy that, according to a recent report by the Institute for Urban Development (IDU), between January and March 2022, nine processes have been awarded for the construction of road infrastructure, which have represented investments of more than 22,345 million pesos, which also reflect the momentum of the economy in the city and the generation of new jobs for about 12,821 workers who carry out these works.
In addition to this, the IDU reported that resources exceeding 335,780 million pesos have been transferred, of which 239,754 million pesos were allocated to works, auditing and consulting contracts currently under way, and 8,036 million pesos for the purchase of the properties required to advance the projects.
The 12,821 workers who participate in these road infrastructure works are, for the most part, unskilled labor that reaches the projects thanks to the calls that are held frequently in the different towns of Bogotá.
The entity also highlighted that another aspect that has contributed to boosting the economy is the 125 permits granted by the IDU for the use of public space, of which 62 correspond to the 'Bogotá a Cielo Abierto' campaign, and 61 to the holding of temporary markets and two for public calamity activities.
