I am planning (hoping) to be able to drive from San Francisco to Los Angeles on Thursday June 23… and would like to partake of the visual, visceral and vicarious pleasures of Highway 1. Will it be completely open by then?
Caltrans is stating Highway 1 will be open “mid-June.” If they meet their schedule you’ll be fine. Check back when you get closure to your travel date.
Had a Outstanding visit back in March 3-9 with my Wife. Attended Daughters Wedding Pacific Grove. Drove down from SF PCH all the way to Big Sur awesome. Even spent sometime at Ft Ord where I took Basic Training(Jul-Aug 1973) along with two other close friends I grew up with in Upper Darby Pa. What a great area met alot of good people along the way.
We’re 4 Australians hoping to drive Highway 1 from San Francisco to Santa Barbara in the 2nd week of June 2012. With the road-work, is it still possible to get through or is there a detour inland? Any information would be gratefully received
We are Aussies as well and left Big Sur Mar 28 and got to the road closure about 15 mins after it had happened, heading for LA. We had to turn around and head back to Montery, so our short day became 10 hours on the road. It was the end of our month long trip, we’d driven 9000 kms (5000 miles). We’ve driven Hwy 1 from LA-SFO (both directions) about 5 times, we’ve always been lucky. Have fun and be careful out there.
We are a brasilian family travelling on California ends of april and may – we are planning to drive from carmel to San Luis obispo on april 29th, but I noticed that this day is going to happen the big sur marathon , will I can do this travel? Thanks for help.

You’ll have no problem. Highway 1 is open. There is always roadwork going on along this stretch of Highway 1 but there are no closures at the moment.
