Highway system

Mexican Federal Highway 180D is the name for toll highways paralleling Mexico Federal Highway 180. Four separate segments of Highway 180D exist. Two are in Veracruz, the Libramiento de Cardel and the Nuevo Teapa-Cosoleacaque highway. Two segments exist past Veracruz, one connecting Champotón to Campeche City and another connecting the cities of Mérida, Yucatán and Cancún, Quintana Roo.

Libramiento de Cardel

The bypass of José Cardel is considered part of Federal Highway 180D.[3] This 2.5-kilometre (1.6 mi) road connects two separate roads signed as Highway 180, the Tamarindo-Cardel highway and the mainline between Poza Rica and the port of Veracruz.

Nuevo Teapa-Cosoleacaque

The western approach to the Puente Antonio Dovalí Jaime

The Highway 180D designation is also applied to a toll road between Nuevo Teapa and Cosoleacaque in the southern portion of Veracruz. The road picks up where the Mexican Federal Highway 145D designation leaves off at Cosoleacaque and carries passengers 34 kilometres (21 mi) to Highway 180 at Nuevo Teapa, crossing the Coatzacoalcos River on the Puente Ing. Antonio Dovalí Jaime (Coatzacoalcos II) [es], which opened to traffic in 1984. One toll booth exists on the road, to the east of the bridge; it charges cars a toll of 19 pesos.[3][4]

Champotón-Campeche

The Champotón-Campeche highway is operated by Caminos y Puentes Federales (CAPUFE) and has a total length of 39.5 kilometres (24.5 mi). Cars are tolled 63 pesos to travel the entire route, 26 for the Villa Madero-Seybaplaya segment and 38 for the Seybaplaya-Campeche segment.[4]

Route description

Highway 180D begins south of Campeche City, absorbing the local road Maestros Campechanos and immediately intersecting the Campeche Beltway (Periférico Pablo García y Montilla) with a full cloverleaf. Proceeding southwest, the next interchange is at Seybaplaya and is immediately followed by a toll booth, the only one on the road.[4] The road ends south of Villa Madero, and traffic proceeds down Highway 180 to Champotón.

History

In 2015, one lane of the toll booth was rendered inoperable after a trailer's brakes failed.[5]

Mérida-Cancún

Federal Highway 180D, also known in this stretch as the Autopista Mérida-Cancún or the Autovía del Mayab, is operated by Consorcio del Mayab, a unit of Empresas ICA which is also the concessionaire for Federal Highway 305D, a 44-kilometre (27 mi) spur route to Playa del Carmen. 8,000 cars a day use the toll road.[6]

Route description

Highway 180D begins east of Mérida, at Kantunil [es], splitting off from its non-toll counterpart, Mexican Federal Highway 180. Almost immediately, it has an interchange at the southern end of Yucatán State Route 53, connecting to Izamal, and an option to merge back onto Highway 180 toward Holca.[7] It proceeds east-southeast through rural Yucatán, with a toll booth north of Pisté. It bypasses Valladolid, with access to the town provided by a full cloverleaf interchange with Highway 295. To the west is an oasis with a Pemex gas station and restaurants. It then edges to the east-northeast, roughly paralleling Highway 180 for the rest of its length.

Highway 180D crosses into Quintana Roo north of Nuevo X-can in Lázaro Cárdenas Municipality. East of here is its interchange with Highway 305D and its toll extension, connecting to Quintana Roo State Route 5 to the north and Playa del Carmen to the southeast. A toll booth is located immediately east of the Highway 305D interchange. After the spur to Playa del Carmen, the road parallels Highway 180 until its terminus. Travelers heading eastbound have the option to merge with non-toll Highway 180, which becomes Avenida López Portillo in Cancún, or to make a right turn and follow Quintana Roo State Route 180 toward Highway 307 with access to the Cancún International Airport.[7]

History

The Autopista Mérida-Cancún was formally opened on December 23, 1991 by President Carlos Salinas de Gortari.[2] Operation of the road was a joint venture between Fomento de Infraestructura Turística, S.A. de C.V. (Fomintur) and Consorcio del Mayab. In 2011, Fomintur was declared behind on its payments, resulting in its dissolution. Ultimately, ICA was awarded the contract to operate the road.

A provision in its concession allowed it to build a spur to Playa del Carmen,[8] and in 2014, Highway 305D (El Tintal-Playa del Carmen) opened, shortening travel times between the state of Yucatán and Playa del Carmen. As a result of the opening of the new road, a toll booth was relocated 21 kilometers.[2]

In 2013, 200 teachers took over one of the highway's toll booths, refusing to charge passing vehicles.[6]

In February 2017, Consorcio del Mayab raised tolls on the road. Vehicles are now charged a toll of 165 pesos between Mérida and Valladolid and 285 pesos between Valladolid and Cancún.[6] Even prior to the toll increases, the highway was the second most expensive toll road in Mexico.[2]
