(Long waits expected)….If you are going to Mexicali, it may take a while.
Mexicali officials are once again conducting what they call sanitation inspections on all vehicles traveling south. The purpose is an attempt to curb the transmission of COVID 19. Beginning Thursday and continuing through the 4th of July weekend, all vehicles going into Mexicali will be stopped. Passengers will have their temperature taken; only two in a vehicle will b allowed. If they have a temperature or show any other signs of COVID exposure, they will be turn back. They will b looking for the illegal importation of beer and other contraband. In pervious sanitary inspections, the traffic has backed up to Jasper Road and beyond, creating 3-4 hour waits, sometimes even longer.
