Avenida Leopoldo Lugones, and its southern continuation, Autopista Dr. Arturo Umberto Illia, is a freeway running from Avenida General Paz in the north, which continues to an interchange with National Route 9 and the Paseo del Bajo (currently a truck and bus only road) in the city center. It provides access to Downtown Buenos Aires from the northern suburbs, and from Rosario, Cordoba, and other northern destinations. Due to the lack of a complete bypass of the city, it also connects truck and bus traffic from La Plata to the north. It runs along the east shore of the city, providing access to Aeroparque Jorge Newbery.^[1][2]
