This in today:
===============
http://www.elvigia.net/general/2014/3/6/paralizan-trabajos-e...
google translation:
At least 45 trucks carrying construction material blocked the entrance to the collapsed section of the Tijuana - Ensenada Scenic Road , apparently
after federal authorities prevented them from continuing repair work due to lack of federal boards .
Romero Santana Maya, federal secretary of the Confederation of Workers of Mexico (CTM ) in Ensenada, said that impede access until a positive response
to those from January to date working at kilometer 93 , which collapsed last 28 December 2013.
" We're going to block access and will not let anyone working in the area, we will not stop until we have favorable response ," he said , noting that
all work be suspended on Scenic .
He added that trucks are both Ensenada and Rosarito who yesterday blocked the entrance to the area of the sinking , which is only a small federal
section , while the rest of the road belongs to the state .
"Suddenly we were sent to a federal authority ever since agents of the Federal Preventive Police ( PFP ) was identified to prevent us from passing ,
not letting us work on filling Scenic " said Romero Maya.
He said that the authority does not belong to Federal Roads and Bridges ( Capufe ) and the Secretariat of Communications and Transportation (SCT ) ,
but has been made known to them the problems began with the cost per trip of material, which is about 2 000 500 pesos.
They wanted another company
The secretary of the CTM and Union representative Carriers Material Handling and Heavy Machinery ( Untram ) and the United Transportation Union
Ensenada ( Sitra ) , noted that there are 45 trucks, 15 of which were working day and the rest night.
He reiterated that after the refusal of the authorities to block the passage , since apparently the problem resulted after the Spanish company Aldesa
in charge of the reconstruction of the federal highway administration, would like to hire another company to service fees.
Up to press time no authority or SCT Capufe answered the call of the Watch to clarify the situation .

Next time I go that way, I plan on notifying the toll booth operator that I will not pay for that stretch of road.
Thanks, Woody!
