200 pesos rountrip Santo Domingo - Santiago

[M4kintosh]

Beginning this Sunday, the new Cibao toll (built to replace the Pedro Brand toll) will charge 100 pesos both ways for cars/SUVs only. The rest (trucks, cargo) will only pay one way (going to Santiago). From Diario Libre:

This is a major change in all tolls from Santo Domingo which only charge to get out of the city, instead to get in.

Apologies for that part. I should pointed 100 pesos Santo Domingo-Santiago and viceversa.
Now reading what I said, it feels higher. @AlterEgo

Any how to modify that from the original content? @Dolores ? @Administration ?

I edited post #1 to read 100 pesos each way. The title/heading is okay.

Is this the brand new huge construction entering to Santiago? Not the toll booths near the capital, right?

No. This is the new tollbooth a little further north than the old toll booth coming out of Santo Domingo.

So they've doubled the income of the busiest toll in the country.

@josh2203 started this morning. They just moved the old toll to a new location before entering Pedro Brand (Kilometro 28) and expanded to 22 lanes. This thing is huge.

The article pretty much explains what the funds are used for
