With surveyors currently conducting fieldwork, construction of the “Macrolibramiento” highway to the south of Guadalajara is set to begin in March.
Also known as the “Libramiento del Sur,” the 111-kilometer highway will run from Zapotlanejo to El Arenal, bypassing Guadalajara in order to ease the transportation of cargo not destined for the city. It will benefit trucks coming from the busy port of Manzanillo, as well as relieving Lazaro Cardenas and the Periferico ring road of a number of heavy goods vehicles.
“We estimate that construction will be underway around early March,” said Heriberto Gonzalez Rodriguez, director of the Ministry of Communications and Transportation (SCT) in Jalisco. Before then, surveyors will continue preliminary work until the end of January.
