Got a report from our son for his travels
Hwy 3 on 4/28 same potholes and not pothole crews, but the locals are filling them with dirt.
South on Hwy 1 on 4/30 No change and no porthole crews.
In fact from Ensenada to Loreto no construction was noted.

No visible work being done on an election year? Someone must feel secure in their office.
I have found crews working on much less traveled roads, such as the one to San Evaristo, and signs of recent work on some of the back roads north of
there. Lots of campaign posters as well.
No recent work was being done on the road south of B.D.L.A., and it sorely needs some!

Can confirm, HWY 3 is a mess of potholes, especially between Ojos Negros and Valle de la Trinidad. Just went through there last week. Nothing out of
the ordinary for that stretch of road. At least the dirt gives them some contrast so you can see them coming up. Still worth it to change things up
from the regular run through Mexicali on the 5, and Taqueria el Rancho is a bonus.

Big potholes on HWY 1 south of Loreto, about 15 or so miles before Insurgentes took out two leaf spring hangers on my trailer on Wednesday.
Found a guy with a $600 ford ranger with a $6000 welder in the bed and he had us rolling again in under an hour and for the price of $100.

Towed an 18 foot boat from Ensenada to Baja Sur this week. Mex 3 is in ok condition. If driven in daylight and and at at a reasonable speed it's fine.
There are potholes and and some missing top layer type spots but overall ok.
Mex 5 has 6 or 8 crazy big holes (rim breakers). They are random where the road is otherwise fine.
The documented Mex 1 stretch from Pt. Prieta to El Tomatal has had a lot of the missing top layer fixed but there are still some VERY BAD spots with
vehicles crossing lanes trying to avoid them. Slow is the name of the game. Safe travels.
