In 1929, the town received the good news that the cobbled road would soon be paved, marking the arrival of the first highway and technological advancements to the western part of the island.

Electric service reached the town in 1949, bringing progress for the entire community, including public and residential lighting.

Today, the Entronque de Herradura community has seven primary schools located in urban and rural areas.

The largest, Sierra Maestra, serves 498 students and is situated in the southeast quadrant, less than half a kilometer from the town center on the road to Herradura.

However, conflicts between doctors and pharmacists often led to short tenures, forcing residents to seek medical care in Consolación del Sur or request house visits.
