Editorial | Fewer traffic jams, better quality of life

Transcript

00:00Liston Diario presents the Editorial from the Director.

00:30The Organization of Traffic Laws has made citizens the direct victims of this disorder.

00:34The opportunity to change things is in our hands.

00:38The new measures to ease traffic congestion in the central area of the capital

00:42mark the beginning of a process that should expand to all of Greater Santo Domingo

00:47and, later, to Santiago.

00:49This plan, called RD Moves, began with a pilot phase that includes, among other things,

00:54prohibiting left turns at several key intersections.

00:57Also, the staggering of working hours in public institutions

01:01and the reorganization of parking in congested areas.

01:05If citizens do not support and comply with these measures, the effort will be in vain

01:09and we will remain trapped in the same chaos, aggravated by inaction.

01:14The success of these measures depends, in large part, on citizen responsibility.

01:20This cannot be an isolated government project, but a crusade by everyone.

01:24Drivers, institutions, neighborhood associations, and society as a whole.

01:30This is a serious effort that can restore the city's lost order, reduce commute times,

01:35and improve everyone's quality of life.

01:38What is at stake is precisely that.

01:40Time, safety, health, and well-being.

01:44And we cannot afford to miss this opportunity for Listine Diario, voiceover and translation by Danny León.

01:52Listine Diario presented the editorial from the director.
