The closure of the Lukeville Port of Entry is causing a slowdown in business and tourism in Rocky Point, Mexico. The closure of the most direct route for Arizonans to reach Rocky Point is impacting the economy, with potential losses in the millions of dollars. Condos, restaurants, and other businesses are experiencing cancellations and reduced customer traffic, leading to layoffs and financial strain.
