The Feds are planning to basically destroy River Road as it is and are going to grade it, raise it up and gravel it, in order to support Border Patrol traffic and observation. There will be short fencing installed to prevent, no joke, vehicle traffic from entering the U.S. across the river. All of this infrastructure plan, as I said, is going to destroy the overlanding experience of the River Road. Agree or disagree with the necessity of this is beside the point and I’m not advocating for any discussion on the positives or negatives of border protection. That discussion is completely besides the question I’m going to ask.
Why isn’t the Blue Ribbon Coalition up in arms over the planned ending of one of the most iconic overlanding routes in the lower 48 and getting into the legal battle to stop it? I have my assumptions on this, but I’m curious where the hive mind is on this.
