and last updated

Caltrans is reopening Highway 1 in Big Sur Friday morning.

The highway has been closed in the Paul’s Slide and Mud Creek areas since Monday, ahead of the storms that swept through the Central Coast. The area is prone to landslides.

On Thursday, the closure was extended on the northern end to Deetjen’s/Fullers Point after crews found several slides during their inspection.

The road will reopen at 10 a.m. Friday.

One lane will be closed and drivers may experience a slight delay as crews continue cleanup in the area.
