Hi all
Following last years dash hubby and I are taking a more relaxed trip this May, so I've been periodically popping into Trip Advisor for some more ideas.
I've discovered that the Pacific Highway is closed from Pfieffer Canyon Bridge (just past Bixby Bridge) to Ragged Point, and the TA experts think that it's extremely unlikely to be open by this summer as there have been various landslides (caused by the heavy rain to date following the forest fires which burnt away the ground cover last summer) along with Pfieffer Canyon Bridge being severely damaged and highly likely needing to be re-built. And all this before the mega-storm that is impacting between LA and San Francisco this weekend!
Just thought I'd post so that if anybody is planning a road trip they can revisit their plans accordingly! Hubby's already planning our detour which apparently will now include a stop at Laguna Seca!
Here's a link to the CalTrans search on Highway 1: http://www.dot.ca.gov/cgi-bin/roads.cgi?roadnumber=1&submit=Search showing current status which may be of use.
