This week’s rundown sponsored by Banditos
It seems there’s something about celebrating the 4th of July in Puerto Peñasco that brings out rhythms of reggae, and the inviting sound of poker chips. That’s right, Sonoran Resorts is gearing up for their Charity Vegas Night while music fans will be out taking in salsa and reggae in celebrating the 4th! Let’s run down the weekend!
DRIVING REMINDERS & DETOUR WATCH
- Sonoyta – Peñasco overpass construction near turn-off to coastal highway
- Entrance to Puerto Peñasco (Blvd. Juarez) still rough as final paving work continues at intersection of Blvd. Juarez / Blvd. Samuel Ocaña / Blvd. Josefa Ortiz de Dominguez
- Sidewalk and curb work being down along paved areas near City Hall leading toward Old Port. Still some patches of packed dirt awaiting finish.
- Road “patching” work along highway East of town toward Mayan Palace. DRIVE CAREFULLY!
