If you are coming down this weekend and plan a visit to the Shrimp Park for the Pirates and Mermaids extravaganza - be notified there is construction on Benito Juarez (main street) here is a map to the event!

Hey Hilltoe, exactly where is that on Benito Juarez?
mexicoruss
Right where the Circle K is to blvd freemont
Hillbeartoe
I was standing on the sidewalk at the BBVA bank next to the park.
You can drive on it at the moment but that could change quickely.

Thanx Russ & Hilltoe. Hope they get it fixed in the next two weeks, but I seriously doubt it.

Yes, it's a usual routine. Streets closed without barriers or signs. Huge drop offs between existing pavement and new construction again without signs or notice. Fremont is inaccessable to Benito Juarez, at this moment in time due to a huge drop off. The detour from BJ to Fremont is around the park but is unmarked. Access to the Malecon is via Calle 8 in the Mirador to Benito Juarez. Luis Encinas is blocked off as are all the streets around the harbor for access to the Malecon at this moment. This could change as the blockage is for demolition and they did reopen BJ between demolition and resurfacing.

Locals know how to get around but the visitors do not. Have had a couple looking for access to the Malecon come in asking how find it.

It's really not that bad if you just look around, we had no problems getting around, access from Benito Juarez to Freemont is easy and is marked with a large flashing arrow light.

Makes me wonder how we're going to get to Gaua Gaua's for the rumble.

Guess I won't need that special two-brick purse after all.
Hillbeartoe
Heading South down BJ they have the Gradere out, but stillbpassing traffic through. From the circle K just be careful.
