In the past few  years there seems to have been a steady increase on building taking place in La Paz. In some areas high rise apartment blocks are springing up seemingly every month and the city centre has also been receiving a make over with some new building projects.

With the ever increasing volumes of traffic in the City an area the authorities have been trying to address is the traffic flow through the city. One of the projects that is near completion has been the remodeling of the traffic flow in around the San Francisco Plaza area which has seen the construction of a pedestrian bridge and new tunnel plus the restriction of traffic stopping and people walking across the roads. This is not nearly complete and the construction of a large new market area will be the final part of this regeneration of the area.
