Ensenada toll road new slippage.
This area is about 4 KM north of the Ensenada toll booth.
Mextrans has been studying and surveying the area about 6KM north of this area.
The slippage is directly above the Playa Saldamando family camping area.
You can clearly see the roadbed guardrails have slipped west about 40 cm (16 inches).
The separation between the slipping side is about 4" lower:
I don't know why some photos are coming out small, and other are coming out large. I clearly have checked off the 640X480 radio button on the download
menu on phootbucket (that is why I have deleted and reposted this 5 times).

....not a surprise it's slumping like that,,,but I'd have thought it more likely where the road is near a steep drop.

The guardrails in the picture is the result of a truck slaming into them and nearly dropping to the southbound lanes below. Been that way for nearly a
month.

If you mean the RSVP...Yes, I got that earlier, but I did not know it was an update.
No, I did not, Terry.

You are looking at the southbound lanes, Bob. The ones your you looked at of the truck slamming into the rails is on the northbound side.

Thanks UDO
Sonny and Cher had it right "...The beat goes on...,at least on the on toll roads in Baja North.
Everyone use the same caution on the roads as you would use on a first date.

OOOPS, sorry. There is a spot on the north bound side where the guard rail still looks the same almost a
month after a truck driver fell alseep and hit it.
