You need to read the other threads on the storm and road conditions... the owned of Baja Cactus has posted many times already... YES, detours are in place and traffic is again flowing (TUE. PM 1-26)... (but more rain may change that)!!!

Dido to what DavidK posted.

Look at Baja HWY 1 conditions after storm.......page 8

The following was posted by Antonio of Baja Cactus:

Official word... Jan 26, 2010 / 6:00pm

Officials from the San Quintín area just told us that the temporary repairs on the bridge should be fully functional by tonight.

So, the official word is that by tomorrow (Jan 27th, 2010) we should have a "normal" flow of traffic, and that trucks will be able to resume the shipment of supplies in the area (fuel, propane, food, etc.).

Of course, this means that also every other type of vehicle will be able to drive through the damage areas.

Fuel delivered...Jan 26, 2010 / 10:23pm



We just received a truck pipe of fuel at the BajaCactus Gas Station in El Rosario... it comes from Ensenada and was one of the first heavy vehicles to cross over the damaged area in Col. Guerrero. We ordered this delivery as soon as we realized what was happening (last Friday) and therefore this delivery was one of the first in line waiting.

The truck driver told us that, between Ensenada and El Rosario, the only really rough and still difficult place to cross over is the repaired bridge in Col. Guerrero. He said that the temporary repairs made "felt kind of soft"... he was worried they will not hold for long... however, remember he was one of the first to cross and he was carrying over 40 tons of fuel.

He also mentioned that now, any type of vehicle can cross over all the areas where the bridges were down, with some difficulties at Col. Guerrero but they can cross.

Let us hope things continue to get better from here on.
