PACIFIC COAST HIGHWAY CLOSURE SCHEDULED

The California Department of Transportation will close the number two lane of northbound (westbound) Pacific Coast Highway between Corral Canyon and Latigo Canyon beginning Monday, Feb. 25, for approximately four weeks (possibly through March 24).
Caltrans has implemented the closure to facilitate emergency rock removal attributable to the landslide that has repeatedly troubled that section of PCH. Slide activity in this area resulted in several near misses with passing vehicles when washing-machine-size boulders crashed down onto the road on Jan 27.
The City of Malibu has requested that work be performed around the clock (24 hours a day) in order to expedite the project. Motorists are advised to exercise caution when driving past the work area, especially late at night.
