After four months of closure, Sharp Boulevard has reopened to traffic following the completion of sinkhole repairs, restoring a key route for residents, commuters, and nearby businesses.

The reopening is expected to significantly ease congestion in surrounding streets, which had absorbed additional traffic during the closure, and improve daily commutes for drivers who rely on the boulevard as a main connection.

State and city officials confirmed that the project, led by the State Infrastructure, Urban Development and Territorial Planning Secretariat (SIDURT) in coordination with the Rosarito City Government, addressed the underlying causes of the roadway damage.

According to SIDURT’s Baja California delegate, David Murrieta Camarena, the work included extending a stormwater culvert, relocating an eight-inch sewer line, replacing residential drainage connections, rehabilitating storm drains, and repaving the roadway.

The project involved an investment of 5 million pesos, in addition to 3.5 million pesos previously contributed by the city during the initial phase.

For nearby residents and business owners, the reopening marks a return to normal activity after months of detours and reduced accessibility.

Murrieta Camarena and Mayor Rocío Adame Muñoz conducted a walkthrough prior to reopening, confirming that the roadway is now fully stable and safe for use.

Final touches included new thermoplastic road markings to improve visibility for drivers, particularly at night.

City officials also acknowledged the patience of residents and local businesses, noting that the project was essential to ensure long-term safety and reliability along the boulevard.
