The closure is due to the passage of the vessel M/V Bourbon Liberty 308, which will be leaving the Joseph Industrial Development Corp. Shipyard. During that period, the MOPC recommended that drivers use the Juan Pablo Duarte, Juan Bosch, and Matías Ramón Mella bridges as alternative routes. The floating bridge connects the National District with the Villa Duarte sector, in Santo Domingo East.
