Nicoya Sports New Boulevard

For this year's celebration of July 25, the annexation of the province of Guanacaste,  visitors attending the festivities in Nicoya will see the new boulevard, an investment by Consejo Nacional de Vialidad (Conavi) of ¢370 million colones.



José Luis Salas, executive director of the CONAVI, said that this stretch of road had level problems (similar to most roads in the country), which led to the complete rebuilding of the road, including a new concrete base and a 5 centimetre thick asphalt top.

In addition to significant improvements were made to the sewer and water pipes running below the road surface.

Trees were pruned, weeds removed and an island was created as part of the new boulevard, the Bulevar San Martín, typical of boulevards in other major towns in Guanacaste, like Santa Rosa and Liberia.
