The city of Tijuana partially closed the merging lane that takes drivers from Bulevar Rosas Magallón onto Calle Cedro, near Valle Sur, on Tuesday, Nov. 10, to repair a sinkhole in the left lane, according to a city statement published by Tijuana Última Hora and San Diego Red. The ramp serves traffic heading from the 5 y 10 intersection toward Playas de Tijuana, the reports said.
The sinkhole was caused by a deteriorated storm-drain pipe. Crews from the city’s public works department, the Dirección de Obras e Infraestructura Urbana Municipal (DOIUM), will replace it with a concrete storm-drain box and rebuild the road slab. The city estimates the job will take 10 calendar days.
Detours
- Cars and light vehicles: Bulevar Fundadores, San Quintín, Avenida Rosarito, Santa Esther and Calle Cedro.
- Trucks and cargo vehicles: Bulevar Fundadores, San Quintín, Avenida Miraflores, Santa Esther and Calle Cedro.
If you drive this way
Expect slower traffic around the work zone and allow extra time, especially if showers arrive over the long weekend, as the forecast suggests. The statement didn’t give daily work hours. For weather and road alerts before a trip, our alert kit has the links.
