According to my newspaper today, California's coast road, Highway 1, will be fully open between Monterey and Hearst Castle/Cambria/Moro Bay and points south, starting this Saturday when the bypass opens at the big slides at Mud Creek and Ragged Point. So good news for anyone who wants to see this beautiful section of the California coast this summer - while following behind a caravan of rented motor homes.

Zitat von andygriff im Beitrag #2 Yes, Highway 1 has been shut since last year when a huge landslide occurred just south of Gorda that created acres of new coastline due to the slide. Caltrans has built a new highway on top of the landslide to get you from Gorda to Hearst Castle and points south.

Good to hear. One of the best rides around. |

I just heard on the radio that the route is being opened today, instead of this weekend.

The entire route is now open. Here is the article from my newspaper today. Note what vehicles were taking advantage of the coastal route the second it opened up.
