Despite these closures, authorities plan to keep two lanes open for vehicular movement in a north-south direction to lessen traffic congestion.<\/p>\n<div class=\"visual__image\">\n<picture><source  media=\"(min-width: 1000px)\"\/><source  media=\"(min-width: 768px)\"\/><source  media=\"(min-width: 580px)\"\/><source  media=\"(min-width: 350px)\"\/><source  media=\"(min-width: 80px)\"\/><img alt=\"Road closures on Carrera 7 between streets 119 and 121 - credit Ministry of Mobility\" class=\"global-image\" decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"low\" height=\"455\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/teknomers.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Construction-Starts-on-the-Green-Corridor-of-the-Seventh-Mobility.webp.jpeg\" width=\"600\"\/>\n<\/picture><figcaption class=\"article-figcaption-img\">Road closures on Carrera 7 between streets 119 and 121 &#8211; credit Ministry of Mobility<\/figcaption><\/div>\n<h3>Duration and Ongoing Measures<\/h3>\n<p>The construction activities are anticipated to last about seven months, with continuous work conducted 24 hours a day. Authorities emphasized the need for compliance with traffic regulations and active attention to signage to maintain safe and efficient circulation.<\/p>\n<h2>Safety and Mobility Recommendations<\/h2>\n<p>To enhance safety during the construction period, district authorities advise users to adhere to specific measures:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Heed the signs installed in the area.<\/li>\n<li>Follow the directives of traffic and construction personnel.<\/li>\n<li>Drive cautiously in affected zones.<\/li>\n<li>Plan trips ahead of time to avoid delays.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The Seventh Green Corridor project, which received approval two years ago, aims to improve mobility in Bogot\u00e1 significantly. The implementation involves an investment of 1.84 billion pesos and encompasses numerous enhancements, including the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Extension of 11.56 kilometers from streets 99 to 200.<\/li>\n<li>A dual carriageway with two mixed-use lanes.<\/li>\n<li>An exclusive lane for TransMilenio with expanded station areas.<\/li>\n<li>Construction of platforms on both sides, plus a bike path on the west side.<\/li>\n<li>14 public transport stations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Projected Impact and Future Phases<\/h2>\n<p>Officials predict that once completed, the corridor will reduce travel times substantially, enhancing transport efficiency across the city. Current estimations suggest a decrease in travel time from 1 hour and 5 minutes to about 25 minutes, contingent on operational circumstances.<\/p>\n<p>This project is structured in phases, with completion for the first section scheduled for February 2029 and subsequent deliveries planned for mid-2029 and the last quarter of 2029.<\/p>\n<div class=\"visual__image\">\n<picture><source  media=\"(min-width: 1000px)\"\/><source  media=\"(min-width: 768px)\"\/><source  media=\"(min-width: 580px)\"\/><source  media=\"(min-width: 350px)\"\/><source  media=\"(min-width: 80px)\"\/><img alt=\"Render of the Green Corridor for Carrera Seventh\" class=\"global-image\" decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"low\" height=\"1080\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/teknomers.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Construction-Starts-on-the-Green-Corridor-of-the-Seventh-Mobility.jpg\" width=\"1920\"\/>\n<\/picture><figcaption class=\"article-figcaption-img\">The authorities recommend that drivers pay attention to the signs and plan their routes in the sector. &#8211; credit Mayor of Bogot\u00e1<\/figcaption><\/div>\n<p>The start of this construction phase marks a crucial step towards improving mobility in Bogot\u00e1, with a careful rollout expected as the project progresses.
