The Atlantic Coast represents the second tourist pole of the Dominican Republic. With more than 10,000 hotel rooms, golf courses, restaurants, airport, commercial port, cruise port, road infrastructure, health system and energy connection, Puerto Plata is the main urban, commercial and tourist center of the Atlantic region. The project consists of creating approximately 32.7 kilometers of infrastructure to address the current deficiency between the provinces of Santiago de los Caballeros (the second-largest province in the Dominican Republic in economic and demographic terms) and Puerto Plata (which hosts the second-largest tourist destination in the Dominican Republic and is the main city on the north coast). This deficiency is reflected in parameters of time, quality, safety, and resilience of land transportation, which are inferior to the infrastructure developed in the Eastern Region and Metropolitan Area of the country over the last 15 years, leading to significant lag in the socio-economic development of the province of Puerto Plata when compared to these regions.
