Urban growth in the east of the Costa Rican capital is underpinned by investment proposals in the Special Economic Zone of Cartago.

The achievements of investment attraction in the province include the opening in November of Paseo Metropolis and the opening of the first phase of Oficentro Terra Campus Corporativo, said Silvia Hidalgo, Director of the Center for University-Industry Links at the Tecnológico de Costa Rica College.

The arrival of the commuter train to Cartago from San Jose by the end of the year, the purchase of land for new facilities for the Max Peralta Hospital, and the construction of a bridge between Taras and Cartago to facilitate flow of access to the city, are infrastructure projects that have been supported and promoted by the economic zone of Cartago.

An article in Elfinancierocr.com quotes Silvia Hidalgo saying, “In the future the creation of a science and technology park is envisioned to allow further growth in research and production.”
