México Roads - Federal Hwy. 150

Looking south along Av. 16 Orientale east of downtown Puebla.


I swear México follows the majority of the world with red on left, green on right. But there are exceptions. Sometimes they get fixed, sometimes not. These are EB at Saul Colombres in Puebla and WB on Calle 2 Orientale in Tepeaca, proving that the error is not limited to one city (but possibly one state).


Looking west from the pedestrian overpass at Calle Serdàn. So is Hwy. 150D the toll road, or is Hwy. 150? Actually, they merge north of downtown, so maybe the answer is "both," but no, the second sign should still have a D. Oh, yeah, and more backwards traffic lights.


Typical distance sign and typical but strange signal ahead sign, entering Santiago Acatlán. I guess the bottom part is the pole? Modern signals usually sit on mast arms.


Wait, am I on Hwy. 150 or Hwy. 2010? Ruta 2010 is just a tourist route to link monuments for the 1810 Mexican Independence and 1910 Mexican Revolution, so it doesn't supersede any other designations, not that routes are signed consistently in the country.


WB out of Tepeaca to A. Gorozpe, a link north to the Hwy. 150D toll road. I think the signs in front are newer, but as of 2019 México still hasn't taken anything down, so who knows? I also think the sign in front is missing a "D" in the shield.

To the toll road, Federal Highway 150D
