La Ruta del Sol: The two lane 1000 km highway will connect Bogota to the Port of Santa Marta in just ten hours!
This is the biggest project of them all, this system of highways, bridges, and tunnels that will cost over a
billion dollars and is said to be the largest infrastructure project in Latin America since the Panama Canal!

By the end of this decade, Bogota will be a much more modern city. These are historic times for Colombia and it's only the beginning. I can't wait!

Completion date of 2016 for the Metro? Haha...I'll be pushing daisies before they finish that project.

the metro will be wonderful...when it's finished. from now until then, it will be hell. 2016? more like 2036. I remember Athens,
Greece projecting their subway...which took 30 years as well. it was hell all the years they were building...but it's lovely now.

I love your eternal optimism Don Simon however as an pathological pessimist disappointment is easier to take.

I doubt I will see the completion of any of these fine and necessary
projects in my lifetime ,you certainly won´t see them because you live in Miami!
