On return, toll road transition to San Ysidro crossing?
Seems last year I may have been too far right, missed the turn to the San Ysidro crossing, a loooong senior moment later found myself at Otay Mesa.
Did I miss a sign? Should have been in left lane? Thanks for any help, Segundo

One of many ways to get to the crossing:
As you leave the third and last toll booth, just continue on straight, up and over the hill and on to Second avenue. Just stay on the Toll Road, so to
speak.
Second Avenue will take you through town and to the well marked road to the crossing.

BTW: CONFUSING ROUTE CHANGE -
When you get to the very end of the border fence road, eastbound, you will now be diverted by a yellow concrete barrier right onto a side street.
Take the first left, and be in the lane immediately LEFT of the orange posts with yellow caution tape. You will be on the usual cloverleaf ramp to the
border.
Don't know when this happened.

That's the end of Second Avenue, Barry. The street you are redirected to. That's the street I talked of above.
Allow me to jump into your post with a caution about using Second Avenue, as I suggested, during the AM rush hour. Don't do it. It gives the
term"SLOW" a new and horrible meaning.

Don't know if it's about security, or just frustration, but before we created to two hour border wait, the folks in Tijuana could navigate their
streets.
