BIG SUR HALF MARATHON TO BE RUN ON HIGHWAY 1 SUNDAY

MONTEREY COUNTY – Two southbound off-ramps will close due to the 7th Annual Big Sur Half Marathon to be run along Highway 1 on Sunday, Nov. 15 starting at 7am.

The southbound off-ramps at Del Monte and Casa Verde will be closed in Monterey on Highway 1 from 4:00 a.m. until 9:00 a.m. Motorists are encouraged to use the following on-ramps as alternates: southbound Fremont, southbound Soledad and northbound Aguajito. No delays are anticipated.

Editor’s Comment: This race starts in historic downtown Monterey, proceeds through Cannery Row, then along the ocean’s edge in Pacific Grove. Impact on Highway is minimal, and impact on Big Sur is non-existent.
