The 68.5 kilometres (42.6 mi) of the highway from Ríoverde to Ciudad Valles, and another 49.1 kilometres (30.5 mi) connecting Ciudad Valles to Tamuín while bypassing both cities, form Highway 70D in San Luis Potosí, legally known as Rayón-Entronque Tamuín.

The road is operated by Caminos y Puentes Federales, which charges a toll of 26 pesos per car to travel the full length of Highway 70D.

[6] From Jala to Compostela the 55.1 kilometres (34.2 mi)[7] road is open and fully operational since February 13, 2017.

The rest of the Highway from Compostela and Las Vartas to Puerto Vallarta is under construction, this 128.9 kilometres (80.1 mi) stretch has no set opening date due to the delays of construction since it does not have the necessary environmental and right-of-way permits issued by the SEMARNAT and the SCT and also, due to lack of resources from the public budget caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Finally, from Las Varas to Puerto Vallarta it will be maintained by Autopista Las Varas - Puerto Vallarta S.A. de C.V. a subsidiary of Impulsora del Desarrollo Económico de América Latina (IDEAL)[9] owned by Carlos Slim and his company Grupo Carso.
