The Dellepiane highway, a major artery in Buenos Aires, will be closed in both directions starting from Friday night and continuing through to Wednesday due to significant construction work. This closure is part of the installation of a new vehicle and pedestrian bridge over Río Negro Street. The project is managed by Autopistas Urbanas (AUSA) and aims to enhance connectivity between the neighborhoods on either side of the highway as part of a broader modernization effort.

In addition to the highway closure, services on the Belgrano Sur train will be affected, with a reduced schedule over the weekend between González Catán and Villa Madero. This reduction in train services may lead to increased traffic on alternative routes as commuters seek other means of transport. The timing of the closure coincides with a long weekend in Argentina, which typically sees higher travel volumes, raising concerns about potential traffic congestion in the area.

The initiative reflects the city’s commitment to improving infrastructure, although it temporarily disrupts the daily routines of many residents. Such projects are vital for urban development, and the community is encouraged to plan their travel accordingly to minimize inconvenience during the works.
