The Nuevitas–Camagüey Road (5–445) is a two-lane road connecting the municipalities of Nuevitas and Camagüey in Cuba. It had a length of 75.5km (46.9miles) in 1947,[1] although it was shortened due to the construction of the Circunvalación Norte of Camagüey, becoming about 71km (44miles).
The road was made to connect Nuevitas and other villages nearby with the rest of the country and have a way to trade sugar, as Nuevitas is the primary port for exports of it. The road has two sections, one going from Camagüey to the Ignacio Agramonte International Airport, where the lanes are separated, and from the airport to Nuevitas, where they conjoin.
Beginning the construction of the road proved to be tough. They had a lack of equipment to make the road, and they needed 32 dump trucks, five tankers, six rollers, two cranes, two graders, a bulldozer, a paver, and over 300 workers in order to finally finish the road.
