Big Sur

South Coast Reason to Give Thanks Today

Highway Highlights – November 27, 2025

Crews are working today, through the holiday, and into the weekend to keep repairs moving at Regent’s Slide!

Despite losing 12 production days to rain and fog earlier this month, excavation is now fully back underway. Progress down the slope has allowed two conventional excavators to join the four spider excavators already on site. Cable-net drapery installation also continues as crews work steadily toward reopening Highway 1.
