Barcelona's Metropolitan Transport department has donated 25 buses to the Dominican Republic. The buses, which are worth RD$50 million, will operate alongside the Metropolitan Bus Services (OMSA) existing fleet. OMSA Director Ignacio Ditren presented the buses at the Presidential Palace where he and President Leonel Fernandez were driven along the streets around the Palace to test out the vehicles. Spanish Vice Consul Rocio Pichardo helped secure the donation of the vehicles and Ditren says that the buses will help strengthen bus services in the Santo Domingo and Santiago areas. Ditren says that OMSA will be receiving seven new buses in January.
