Building a Sea Wall

Anyone who has traveled Highway One between Cambria and Gorda lately, has seen, been behind, or almost been hit by the large trucks that have been carrying rocks up the coast to reinforce a sea wall south of Mud Creek. At two spots, there are flaggers to stop vehicles when the trucks need to use both sides of the highway. At other places, the trucks just take a chance. it was one of those that almost hit me, had I not be driving slow, pulled as far right as I could, and came to a complete stop.

Ten trucks a day, making three trips each, have been bringing these rocks up the coast from a quarry just south of Cambria. They have just about exhausted that quarry. They will be going to Porterville soon to get the rocks, per the flagger with whom I spoke. I can only imagine that logistical nightmare.
