Thanks to David K of Bajanomad Forums for posting these helicopter photo shots of the Ensenada Toll Road Repair. Photos shot Tuesday, June 24, 2014.
As written previously, my pro background is in sales, and I’m no engineer nor geo rock guy. But, wowzers, the landslide area sure does look like a big sand pit that wants to melt into the ocean.
I also like the terracing for the condo projects in top photo, that will hang above the beach. Before the slide, Cuatro Cuatros said that they owned part of the beach in the area. Cuatro Cuatros’ ranch property, winery, restaurant and a couple of their picnic perches are just above the slide.
Can’t find documentation, but, some forum discussion indicates that there will be 2 lanes, one northbound, one southbound, climbing and circumventing the slide for the September 15 reopening. It will supposedly take a year to re-construct the original highway path here. Anyone confirm with documentation from CAPUFE or other source?
What’s the over/under on the new toll fee at the ‘Nada toll booth?
