barrbower Posted December 23, 2017 Report Share Posted December 23, 2017 Unless I missed something, which is quite possible, it now seems that when heading into Guad on Lopez Mateos you can't exit and head west on the periferico. You can still get on and go east and you can still get off the periferico onto LM when traveling west. It looks like they just took out the cloverleaf that let you do the normal loop up to the westbound periferico. We just went past the Home Depot and traveled back east until we got to the entrance to head west. Has anybody heard about a design change or eventual addition of some way to make that portion of the trip easier? Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Saltos Posted December 23, 2017 Report Share Posted December 23, 2017 When going into Guad from Lakeside the entrance to Periferico west is about 5 minutes past the airport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickS Posted December 23, 2017 Report Share Posted December 23, 2017 I think that the OP is referring to the Lopez Mateos intersection.... I think that that Lopez Mateos 'access' to the Periferico was eliminated within the last year. A Google Maps view of it in 2015 shows it to be there but the 2017 view shows that it is now gone.

Before it disappeared elaborate plans were shown in the Guadalajara Reporter on how they were going to redo to make it a super easy cloverleaf but they did the opposite-made it worse.

ednet94 Posted December 23, 2017 Report Share Posted December 23, 2017 The entrance to the west is now before passing periferico. Now you have to take the exit to the South and right away before merging onto periferico there you will find on your left side the exit to the west. It has its flaws but it really helped merging onto periferico west. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ednet94 Posted December 23, 2017 Report Share Posted December 23, 2017 Going outbound of Guadalajara on Lopez Mateos and you want to take periferico South, they are constructing the same thing and it will open somewhere in 2018 and they will eliminate that cloverleaf too once it's done. The remaining two coverleafs will stay the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barrbower Posted December 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2017 So, it seems that you exit to the right before getting to the periferico but stay in the left portion of that exit . Then you travel under the periferico and loop around and then go under Lopez Mateos and the loop up onto northwest bound periferico. Well, I guess I did miss something. I hope that works better that the crazy cloverleaf. They never seem to do the same thing twice when configuring highway intersections. They always seem "casi perfecto." Thanks for the info.
