Route Notes For Getting To The Calexico West Border Crossing - Ready Lanes & All Traffic - From Northbound Highway 5 in Mexicali
The route we depict in the video and accompanying map is our recommended way to get to the Calexico West Ready Lane and All Traffic crossing. This route is generally how the navigation platforms will direct you (Google/Waze/Apple Maps), but it's worth keeping in mind the landmarks we point out in the video. While there are different ways to get through Mexicali, we recommend that you turn right on Calzado Manuel Gómez Morín off of Highway 5 - just look for the Kenworth dealership (and AutoZone) as landmarks. You will follow this road all the way to the border frontage road (Ave. República de Argentina). After turning left onto the border frontage road (Cristóbal Colón) and following the road westbound for numerous blocks, you will need to queue up at the back of the line in the right lane. This is the entrance for both Ready Lane and All Traffic border crossers.
