Ensenada highway closures

SFandH - 7-19-2022 at 08:54 AM

Do the highways mentioned in these articles affect highway one traffic through Ensenada? I don't quite understand what's going on.

The stories are about a week old.

I just see Highway One, south from Ensenada mentioned?
Just more reasons to use Hwy. 5 (unless your destination is between Ensenada and El Rosario, then you're out of luck).
Thanks for the news.

I saw none of that coming from Rosirtio

One of the articles starts with:

"Un grupo de manifestantes bloqueó la carretera Chapultepec- Maneadero, mejor conocida como “Tramo de la muerte”."

"A group of protesters blocked the Chapultepec-Maneadero highway , better known as the “Death Section”."

Where's that? Highway One near Maneadero? Why call it “Tramo de la muerte”.?

Apparently, there are protests and highway construction slowing traffic. Where's the construction? Why the protests?

That's near the turnoff to Estero Beach, north of Maneadero, right?

“Tramo de la muerte”?

Yes also building new bridge

SFandH - 7-20-2022 at 09:11 AM

OK, I think I understand. There is major highway 1 construction between the Estero Beach (Chapultepec) area and Maneadero to the south that at times takes a couple of hours to traverse.

Forget visiting Punta Banda from the north until it's finished.

Came thru yesterday and yes it is a mess. Also missed the turn off from the river road and as always fun to find a way back. Long drive from Chivato in one day!
