Dowtown Detours
Thursday, February 8th, 2007I’m sure you’ve noticed the dozens of cranes highlighting the Downtown San Diego skyline as you’re cruising down the I-5. The pink and orange hue of the setting San Diego sun glistening off the glass windows of skyscrapers can leave you mesmerized, not to mention the JetBlue jumbo jet that just flew overhead. Well snap back into it before you hit the exit ramp because you are about to hit a gauntlet of construction zones and detours ! The resurgence and revitalization of Downtown San Diego is not only welcome and fantastic but necessary. With roughly a million residents slated by 2030, construction is going to be ever present. Complaining about it isn’t going to make it get better or go away and luck favors the prepared so let’s do that; before you head downtown, go to THIS site to find out where the delays and detours will be and plan yourself a better route. Info will also be provided for finding best routes and parking for concerts, baseball games at Petco, and other events. The diligent may also want to check THIS out, it’s a map of Downtown San Diego parking meters that offer 9 hours for $4.50, that’s $.50/hr !!
