Anyone heading east from San Luis Rio Colarado on MX federal highway 2 should find an alternate route (unless you are driving a troph truck). The 94 miles that follows the AZ border between SLRC and Sonoya has aproximatele 25 miles of detours on the dirt, some with large rocks. With all the tractor trailers creeping through these (about 30 of them) it took me 4 hours to go the 94 miles. :fire::fire:

I found out the hard way. We thought we would save some time from Ajo to S Felipe. Miles of dirt bypass. We returned via Algodones.

When was that?
In Oct they were working on 5 or 6 10 km sections and I would have thought that some of those would be finished by now.

I took that road in May and it was all torn up.
