Highway 1 fully reopened in January through Big Sur to San Luis Obispo County. This week, Caltrans again closed an area south of Big Sur.

In today's newscast, the California Nurses Association is pushing for health care reform. And, Caltrans has closed part of Highway 1 south of Big Sur due to slides and debris.
