Yes, I flew into La Romana yesterday and had to go to Punta Cana. A short way out of La Romana towards Higuey my driver asked if I wanted to try the new highway. Of course it was not open but a few hundred pesos to one of the workers and the barrier was lifted.

After spending about ,1,000 pesos to get through some more barricades and about 35 minutes later I was at the large circle before the circle at Puna Cana Village. I say less than 25 minutes driving time. You completely avoid Higuey. Road is great, no tolls.

Leonel opens this section Wed. and it is open to the public Thursday. Now it is nothing to go to SD from PC.
