The Interamericana, for example, was built before the existence of many of those towns that surround it today. This has resulted in the danger to which thousands of people are exposed who must cross its four lanes to move from one point to another within the towns they inhabit. The Government, to contain this impulse to build around the new roads, must adopt laws that allow the free circulation of vehicles, without the obstacles involved in crossing a village. In this way, collisions and collisions will be avoided, not counting works directed at pedestrians that do not use, such as overpasses. It is urgent that the Ministry of Public Works promote new legislation in this matter or, otherwise, we will have very expensive roads converted into small-town streets because nobody plans in Panama.
