The Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) has donated US$1 million to the DR and will be designated to the OPRET for the design, implementation and construction of the Santo Domingo feeder lines. The lines, which were due to be built in conjunction with the Santo Domingo Metro have yet to materialize and has caused concerns that they would never be built. Supporters of the Metro say that once the feeder lines are built it will make the Metro project more efficient and will provide a better service for commuters.
