"Highway 1 Closure: Landslide Causes Major Disruption near Big Sur"
A portion of California's Highway 1 near Big Sur collapsed into the sea, leading to an indefinite closure of a 1.4-mile stretch. The closure is the latest setback for the area, which has been grappling with landslides triggered by last year's wet winter. The closure has been extended due to new slide activity, and repair work is expected to take time due to challenging conditions. The road contains multiple slide sites, and repairs are anticipated to be completed by May 1 for one site and by late spring for another.
