The main objective of the reconstruction works carried out in this section is to guarantee road safety requirements that meet the conditions for highways of such intensity. Only when the necessary technical and safety requirements are met and when the road meets the requirements applicable to the highway, it will be possible to drive at a speed of 130 km / h in summer and 110 km / h in winter in accordance with the Traffic Regulations by highway.
