History

[edit]

In June 2024, in Crucero Carmita on the 4–321, a tourist Transgaviota bus, coming from Cayo Santa María to the Abel Santamaría Airport, and a privately owned car crashed into each other, with 26 injuries and 1 death, with it being suggested the car went into the left lane, which is common in the region.[2][3][4]

Also in June 2024, residents living nearby the road, in the Santa Clara-Camajuani area, protests and blocked the road due to lack of drinking water in the region for 50 days.[5] Residents have been seen getting buckets of water going along the road in order to have drinking water.[6] Sources say over 3,500 people living in neighborhoods around the road have been affected in an over 68 day period.[7]
