The Transport Reorganization Office (OPRET) reports that the torrential rains that have fallen over the past week have delayed construction works on the second Metro line. However, the tunnel that will connect the stations at Luperon and Nunez de Caceres avenues is "just meters" away from completion. This will complete the tunnel all the way to the V Centenario Station, according to Diario Libre.
Opret deputy director Leonel Carrasco says that the rains have slowed down the excavation of the final meters between the two stations. He added that the stations between Nunez de Caceres Avenue and the station at San Martin and the V Centenario Avenues are now joined, a total of seven stations. From there the Metro will go to La Normal on Duarte Avenue, and to Josefa Brea and Albert Thomas Streets, each with a station until the lines reach the Francisco del Rosario Sanchez Bridge where this stage of the project ends.
