Does anyone have simple directions to the Otay Mesa Sentri line via BLVD 2000?:?:

From Popotla and Corridor (Blvd 2000) You’ll go under the toll road and onto the beautiful Blvd 2000. As you go along there are signs for Garita Otay. They indicate you should be in the right lane but it makes no difference. Stay on that road. You get to a more “inhabited” area – WATCH YOUR SPEED. plenty of cross traffic and pedestrians

You will pass an area that has the Comercial Mexicana, Solo un Precio and the usual suspects ON YOUR RIGHT.

After about 26 miles from the free road in Popotla there will be a turnoff to your right that is well marked for San Diego and the 905. This will put you on Industrial Blvd

After about the second stop sign/signal make sure you are in one of the two right hand lanes (it’s a 3 lane road). STAY IN THE RIGHT HAND LANE!

You’ll come to a sign at a major intersection (with a PEMEX on the corner to your left) that tells you turn right for BELLAS ARTES or to continue straight for the GARITA (border).

FOR SENTRI: Take that right turn up to BELLAS ARTES, it's a couple of blocks. Bella Artes will be the first major street you come to. Turn left at BELLAS ARTES and continue on Bellas Artes about 6 blocks and you’ll see the overpass that goes to the border.

There are signs, but look for a car wash on the corner to your right just before the overpass– turn JUST before the car wash – as if you were going to the car wash – then continue on that road in the center lane directly to the SENTRI booths.

Thanks! That sounds simple enough
