Here are two photos which show the closure moved to Ragged Point this morning and the pipes for the Elephant Trunk drainage modification going on this week.

Additionally,

As mentioned below, several weeks of miscellaneous work still remain at Pfeiffer Canyon Bridge. Effective Monday, Oct. 30, there will be alternating lane closure Mondays through Thursdays from 7 am to 4 pm and Fridays from 7 am to 2 pm. Roadwork will consist of removing the falsework, followed by painting.

Pfeiffer Canyon Bridge [PCB] (PM 45.52)
The new Pfeiffer Canyon Bridge opened on Friday, Oct. 13 at 1:10 pm following a heartfelt community event where dignitaries, media and various agencies were also invited to partake in the ribbon cutting ceremony. Final work will continue for several weeks but Pfeiffer Canyon Bridge now provides access to both locals and the public. There will be some weekdays that will require a lane closure consisting of one-way reversing traffic control.

REMINDER: Travelers still CANNOT access the entire length of Highway 1 from Carmel to Cambria but local businesses are open on both sides of Mud Creek and Pfeiffer Canyon Bridge.
