加州1号公路大苏尔段11月18日、19日白天全封闭 开展边坡防护施工
加利福尼亚州交通厅（Caltrans）第5区宣布，加州1号公路在蒙特雷县 Big Sur 海岸 Torre Canyon 桥附近路段（里程桩39至40英里处），将于11月18日（周三）和11月19日（周四）白天全封闭施工，两天封闭时段均为上午8点至中午12点、下午1点至5点，中午12点至1点放行一小时，施工安排以天气允许为前提。
此次施工是在路面上方边坡安装钢制防护网，属于今年夏季 Timber Fire 山火之后的边坡稳定与冬季来临前防护工程。Timber Fire 于8月初在 Big Sur 一带燃起，过火面积超过25,000英亩，加州消防局10月9日的最后一次更新显示火势97%受控。10月29日，同一路段已进行过一次同类白天封闭施工。
Caltrans 表示，施工期间将与应急部门和当地学区协调车辆通行需求，驾驶人行经 Big Sur 海岸时应留意最新路况信息，预留额外出行时间。1号公路是加州海岸的景观干道，Big Sur 段依山临海，雨季前完成边坡防护有助于降低落石与滑坡风险。

Highway 1 Near Big Sur to Close Daytime on November 18 and 19 for Slope Protection Work
Caltrans District 5 announced that Highway 1 near the Torre Canyon Bridge on the Big Sur coast in Monterey County, California (post miles 39 to 40), will be fully closed during daytime hours on Wednesday, November 18, and Thursday, November 19. On both days the closure runs from 8 a.m. to noon and from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m., with a one-hour opening from noon to 1 p.m.; the work is weather permitting.
Crews will install steel mesh on the slope above the roadway, part of slope stabilization and pre-winter protection work following this summer's Timber Fire. The Timber Fire ignited in early August in the Big Sur area and burned more than 25,000 acres; CAL FIRE's final update on October 9 reported it 97 percent contained. The same stretch of highway underwent a similar daytime closure for this work on October 29.
Caltrans said it will coordinate vehicle access needs with emergency services and the local school district during the closures, and advised drivers traveling the Big Sur coast to check current road conditions and allow extra travel time. Highway 1 is California's coastal scenic route, and completing slope protection on the cliffside Big Sur segment before the rainy season helps reduce the risk of rockfalls and slides.
