DRAINAGE IMPROVEMENT ON HWY. 1 JUST SOUTH OF LIMEKILN CREEK BRIDGE

 

BIG SUR – The project consists of a drainage improvement on Hwy. 1, just south of Limekiln Creek Bridge for two weeks starting Monday, April 13, Caltrans officials today announced.

Work consists of one-way reversing traffic control with flaggers and work hours are Mondays through Thursdays from 8 am to 4 pm and from 8 am to 2 pm on Fridays. Up to 15 minute delays can be anticipated. Work is scheduled to be complete in early May, weather permitting.

  • Great news! There has been some scary stuff coming down there to add adrenaline to my commutes. So I welcome a little safer drive to the school. I'm sure I'm not alone.
    and for now, during the Spring Break, we are up at our place in the mountains of Idaho...and it is WINTER. Deep snow in our canyon, snowing off and on all day, and it will continue through Wednesday. We have a mixed herd of whitetail and muley deer, with young elk wintering below us...quite a sight.
