Night lights are welcome by all.

Construction along Playa Zicatela is in high gear with near half of the new road completed. While still a little tough getting around, all hotels and businesses are open.

The coastal highway construction is an ambitious project which extends from Puerto Escondido to Huatulco.

Daily detour changes are always a challenge.
