In preparation for the highly anticipated Bad Bunny concerts near the Juan Pablo Duarte Olympic Center this Friday and Saturday, the National Institute of Transit and Land Transportation (INTRANT) and the General Directorate of Traffic Safety and Land Transportation (DIGESETT) have unveiled a comprehensive traffic management plan. To mitigate congestion in the event zone, motorists are advised to utilize alternate routes, including Mexico Avenue, Abraham Lincoln Avenue, Independence Avenue, George Washington Avenue, Delgado Street, and Leopoldo Navarro Avenue, starting at 3:00 p.m. These routes are designed to divert traffic away from the immediate vicinity of the Olympic Center. Additionally, parking restrictions will be enforced on major thoroughfares such as Máximo Gómez, 27 de Febrero, John F. Kennedy, and Ortega y Gasset avenues. Sidewalk occupation and lingering in public areas will also be prohibited to maintain order. Vehicle access to the Olympic Center will be strictly limited to sports activities and internal operations, with entry permitted only through gates on Máximo Gómez Avenue and 27 de Febrero Avenue. Buses and tour operator vehicles will be allowed to drop off passengers in surrounding areas, with John F. Kennedy Avenue designated as a primary transfer point. For the concert’s exit, expected in the early morning hours, Ortega y Gasset Avenue will operate exclusively southbound, from Gustavo Mejía Ricart Avenue to John F. Kennedy Avenue, with priority given to pedestrian safety. Authorities have strongly encouraged the use of public transportation, including the Santo Domingo Metro, bus corridors, and authorized taxis, to reduce traffic pressure. Officials emphasized that these measures aim to enhance traffic flow and ensure safer mobility throughout the National District during the event.
