Highway 1 lane closures near Fort Ross.

There will be a temporary traffic signal for several months on Highway 1 north of Fort Ross State Park beginning Tuesday while Caltrans builds an erosion prevention wall, the agency said Monday.

There will be only a one-way lane for traffic for five months while Caltrans builds a 265-foot wall along the west side of the highway to prevent erosion. The road will also be widened.

On Wednesday, Caltrans will turn on a traffic signal on Highway 1 just south of Fort Ross, also routing traffic one-way only. This signal will be in effect for three months while Caltrans completes a project to stabilize the uphill side of the highway, the agency said.

sweet!    it might be time to take the diversion ridge route when homebound.

Diversion ridge it is!

I can hear banjos on the porch on that diversion road.

That ridge always smells like skunk. Must be a lot of them that cross

Thanks for the heads up Dustin.
