Under crystal clear skies, three years to the day after the first of a series of landslides cut off access to the full Big Sur coast, the California’s iconic Highway 1 finally fully reopened on Wednesday.
Motorists can drive along the coast from the Bay Area to Southern California again after massive slide is cleared.
Highway 1 along the Big Sur Coast is set to fully reopen this afternoon after three years of roadwork. Roads were supposed to be open to travelers in March. According to Caltrans, work to both stabilize the slope and implement additional safety features has finished early.
