New toll road, Guanajuato to Morelia

Thanks Tequila. Briansue, I cheated on that photo and copied the URL directly from our blog.

Have a question about San Luis Potosi to Guanajuato. Don't want to hijack your thread so I'll start a new one.

Tallyho69 see you in a couple of weeks.

20.75123° -101.33858° OK - I found it on Google Earth - big loop NE of Irapuato over to Salamanca where it connects to 43D - they show this new section also numbered 43D. So sad Microsoft quit making S&T - but many new roads do show up in Garmin - have to look at mine for this route.

I know the instructions for how to post a picture are out there somewhere but I still do not know how to do it. I could post screen shots of Streets & Trips maps if I knew how to do it. As I recall there is something about going to a website and posting the picture there and then adding the URL? Is it quick and easy? Where do I find the instruction and then how do I remember how to do it?

IS that really new? Or a new entrance? We did Guanajuato to Morelia via cuota some years ago, as in the 2011 Guia Roji

In the fall of 2013 we travelled from Queretaro to Morelia, essentially on the same cuota south from Salamanca.

It's new, it shows in the new 2015 Guia Roji but not the 2014. it opened less thana year ago. If you put those coordinates shown on my GPS into google earth (2014) you will see it under construction. Street view which was done earlier shows a 2 lane road.

Your marks are too low, its above salamanca & back towards Leon it ties directly in to the section you have marked at the north end of it. .As a matter of fact right underneath the blue arrow you show

I think that may be the cuota that goes from Salamanca to Morelia over Lake Cuitzeo? 43D? We took that a few years ago and found it to be about the most expensive based on dollars per mile we have experienced. But it all depends on where you are going and what the most direct route is. Chris will tell us how he uses the libres and we do too. If we are going from Guanajuato or thereabouts toward Chapala or Guadalara we take 90 and 110 through Penjamo and La Piedad. Years ago this route was not a lot of fun. But these days it is among those libres they have completely rebuilt along with perifericos around towns so it is pretty much all good road - though obviously not a direct route from Leon to Morelia - we use it between Chapala and Guanajuato/San Miguel. Which reminds me - many old libres are being rebuilt and modernized and we need more reports on the best roads between point A and point B between some of the more favored areas of Mexico RVers like to visit. New roads all the time and easier routes. In recent years it has gotten easier and easier to drive around many areas of Mexico as roads seem to be getting upgrades on a regular basis.

I agree with Canadian Rainbirds. But, any new toll roads are good,even if they aren't actually new, just newly discovered.

Nice looking highway. I can remember back in the 60s going south from San Diego the highway stopped at the border and it was rough going south of the border. Now Mexico has beautiful highways and when you get to the border at San Diego going north it is rough going. How times have changed.
