Highway One in Big Sur, one of California’s major north-south roadways, fully re-opened earlier today – nearly three months ahead of schedule.
Governor Gavin Newsom announced the reopening of the coastal roadway, which was damaged by a landslide two years ago.
The landslide known as Regent's Slide closed a nearly seven-mile segment of Highway 1 in Monterey County in February 2024. It was initially scheduled to reopen by the end of March.
