Federal Highway 140D (La Carretera Federal 14d) is a toll (quota) part of the federal highways corridors (los corredores carreteros federales) that connects Puebla City to Xalapa.
A toll road, also known as a turnpike or tollway, is a public or private road for which a fee is assessed for passage. It is a form of road pricing typically implemented to help recoup the cost of road construction and maintenance.
Xalapa is the capital city of the Mexican state of Veracruz and the name of the surrounding municipality. In the 2005 census the city reported a population of 387,879 and the municipality of which it serves as municipal seat reported a population of 413,136. The municipality has an area of 118.45 km². Xalapa lies near the geographic center of the state and is the second-largest city in the state after the city of Veracruz to the southeast.
Fed. 140D begins east of Puebla City near Amozoc de Mota and proceeds northeast through Puebla and Tlaxcala, with notable interchanges at Zitlaltepec, Cuapixtla and Libres; this segment was built by OHL[ clarification needed ] and costs 127 pesos to travel in its entirety. [3] It enters Veracruz near Perote, after which maintenance is taken over by Copexa. Copexa charges a toll of 139 pesos per car for the segment between Perote and Banderilla, [4] which passes through Las Vigas de Ramírez, and another 139 pesos for the following segment, the Libramiento de Xalapa, which bypasses the city altogether. For a short portion east of Xalapa, Fed. 140D and Fed. 140 share the same routing, though Fed. 140D returns to bypass Plan del Río, a tolled 12-kilometre (7.5 mi) segment that charges users 40 pesos [5] and is operated by Concesiones y Promociones Malibrán, S.A. de C.V.
