Visiting the Old Plank Road in Imperial County, CA

The Old Plank Road was a wooden road that crossed the Algodones Dunes in Imperial County, CA. It was in operation from 1915-1926 and was built to facilitate travel between San Diego, CA and Yuma, AZ.

Today a portion of the road can still be found in the Algodones Dunes Recreation Area, on Grays Well Rd. After exiting Interstate 8 at Grays Well Rd, just follow the road past the Midway Campground and there is a parking area with a historic marker, a kiosk talking about the plan road's history, a recreated portion of the road, and the original plank road itself.
