Progreso Bridge: Jalisco-Nayarit Border Crossing, Mexico

Progreso Bridge San Sabastian
Progreso Bridge San Sabastian.

The Progreso Bridge serves as a vital crossing over a deep ravine, marking the border between the Mexican states of Jalisco and Nayarit. This concrete arch bridge, distinguished by its bright yellow guardrails, facilitates travel between Puerto Vallarta and the popular tourist destinations of Riviera Nayarit. The structure's construction was essential for connecting these coastal regions, enabling easier access and commerce. A sign at the Nayarit end of the bridge, reading "Bienvenidos Ruta de la Raicilla," welcomes travelers and indicates the transition into a region known for its agave spirits.
