  • Tren Urbano Light Rail Project; San Juan, PR 2008
    Tren Urbano Heavy Rail Project Before-and-After Study (2008) San Juan, Puerto Rico Learn more: www.transit.dot.gov/before-and-after-studies Federal Transit Administration August 2007 2.1 Puerto Rico Highway and Transportation Authority– Tren Urbano Light Rail Project Puerto Rico Highway and Transportation Authority (PRHTA) and FTA signed an FFGA in March 1996 for the 10.7 mile double track heavy rail system. An amended FFGA was signed in July 1999 and increased the number of stations by 2 for a total of 16 and the number of rail vehicles by 10 for a total of 74, with an anticipated revenue operations date of May, 2002. From 1999 to 2004, total estimated project cost increased from $1.65 billion to $2.25 billion. Thus, in 2000 amid concerns about schedule, costs and project management, FTA and OIG required PRHTA to submit a Recovery Plan. However, as of 2004, FTA and OIG had not been able to approve of the cost recovery plan causing PRHTA to absorb the rise in construction costs locally. Consequently, no additional federal funds were obligated after the 1999 FFGA amendment. In May 2002 FTA approved an extension of the Revenue Operations Date to June 30, 2004. The project opened for revenue service on December 17, 2004. 2.1.1 Project Background Rail transit has been considered in the San Juan region since 1967 when a 27-mile, 2 route heavy rail system was proposed in the Regional Transportation Study. A feasibility study conducted in 1979 proposed a one line 14-mile heavy rail alternative that incorporated aerial structures, underground and at grade segments into a route that traversed from Miramar to Bayamon and was dubbed the “Bayamon Crescent.” This project was approved into the Regional Transportation Plan in 1982.

  • Implementing & Funding the SJBE Management Plan
    CHAPTER SEVEN: IMPLEMENTING AND FUNDING THE SJBE MANAGEMENT PLAN THE SAN JUAN BAY ESTUARY (SJBE) Program is unique among the existing 28 national estuary programs (NEPs) in the United States. It is the only NEP located in a densely populated, intensely industrialized, highly developed, and ecologically sensitive tropical island. Also, since San Juan, Puerto Rico is the oldest city within the United States, its historical and archeological features have immense social and cultural value. These diverse characteristics Torrecilla Lagoon. present a true challenge and an exciting opportunity of paramount importance for estuarine conservation and management in the western hemisphere. The experience of the SJBE Program in managing valuable and threatened natural resources will be extremely useful to Latin American countries and other Caribbean island nations. Additionally, Puerto Rico, with its extensive bilingual and multi-cultural history, has the opportunity to improve communications with Spanish speaking countries and enhance information exchange across the western hemisphere. 228 Management Plan July 2000 The implementation of the Management Plan will have a tremendous impact on Puerto Rico. San Juan has an extensive water body system interconnecting San Juan Bay and several coastal lagoons through channels to the Atlantic Ocean. This system is anchored on the western portion by San Juan Bay, the major port of entry to Puerto Rico, and the busiest commercial port in the Caribbean. The eastern portion of the system has several lagoons and canals providing a continuous inland waterway from the Piñones State Forest to the Old San Juan tourist area. Some areas of the estuary are bordered by poor marginal communities which require high priority attention due to the public health effects of pollution.

    Spring 2019 SPRING 2019 WASHINGT N SERVING VIRGINIA, WASHINGTON, D.C. AND MARYLAND Hilarie Burton ROME | DUBAI SPRING BREAK TRAVEL TIPS NO. 10 Puerto Rico Credit: pyzata/Getty FLYWASHINGTON.COM 40 SPRING 2019 BY MICHAEL SHAPIRO With tropical beaches, vibrant nightlife, innovative chefs, and new attractions, Puerto Rico continues to rebound after the devastating hurricane that hit the island in 2017. In the capital of San Juan, hotels and restaurants are back up and running, while the rest of the island continues to rebuild. The resilient spirit of the Puerto Rican people and their desire to share their island with visitors, regardless of the state of recovery, makes the island worthy of a visit. Why head there now? “The music is unbelievable. People are happy here,” says Juan Jose Cuevas, executive chef at 1919 restaurant in the newly reopened Hotel Condado Vanderbilt. “It’s a very good place to relax — we love and need tourists.” Simply by visiting, travelers are helping the island get back on its feet. Puerto Rico is a U.S. territory, so U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents don’t need a passport to visit, and cell phones with U.S. domestic phone plans often work as they do at home, without additional fees. Nonstop fights from Washington D.C. to San Juan take less than four hours. SIGHTS, EXPERIENCES, AND ATTRACTIONS OLD SAN JUAN: If you’ve seen the video for the worldwide hit song “Despacito” — the most watched YouTube video ever, with more than 5.8 billion views — you’ve caught a glimpse of Old San Juan.

El Gran Combo’s parent band, Cortijo y su Combo (which drew most of its members from the Santurce neighborhood of la Parada 21) helped forge diasporic connec- tions between diverse black communities in the Caribbean and Latin America in the 1950s. El Gran Combo has continued and expanded that legacy over almost five decades, through a strong community ethic. We argue that the transnational reach of these musicians is due in part to: 1) centuries of immigration from other islands that created a hybrid and inclusive musical culture in Cangrejos; and 2) 20th century economic developments that positioned Santurce at the crossroads of international entertainment, media, and labor migration.

  • San Juan, Puerto Rico Overview
    Debbie Brown [email protected] www.cruiseplanners.com 888-959-8996 | 404-480-4408 SAN JUAN, PUERTO RICO OVERVIEW Introduction San Juan, Puerto Rico, with stunning beaches, is one of the busiest leisure and business travel destinations in the Caribbean. It is especially convenient for U.S. citizens, because they do not need a passport to go to Puerto Rico and the currency there is the U.S. dollar. Old San Juan's walled enclave delights visitors with a treasure trove of Spanish colonial architecture. The venerable San Juan Cathedral, gray cobblestoned streets and pastel-colored buildings give the Puerto Rican city the glamorous look of a movie set. Visitors will find a deep respect for the past combined with passion for the trends of the present. San Juan houses cultural attractions such as the stunning Museo de Arte de Puerto Rico, the state-of-the-art Coliseo de Puerto Rico that has welcomed major superstars and athletes, and a multimillion-dollar convention-center facility—the largest in the Caribbean. Historic neighborhoods offer sophisticated restaurants that combine Latin, Caribbean and Asian flavors. Cosmopolitan lounges, restaurants and nightclubs all around town fuel the city's reputation as a late-night haven for beautiful people. Puerto Rico sustained severe damage during Hurricane Maria in September 2017. Recovery efforts may take years, but great strides have been made. Cruise operations have resumed, and air travel at Luis Munoz Marin International is functioning at its pre-hurricane level. Most hotels are now open, and newly renovated properties are opening steadily. Some larger luxury properties will continue to reopen into 2020.
