One Way Controlled Traffic on 36 Due to Slide
The CHP Traffic Incident Information Page states the slide blocked the road about 3:30 this morning and Caltrans was able to get one lane open before 4 a.m.
A traveler who sent the above photo told us, “We waited 20 minutes to get thru.”
Please remember that information gathered from initial reports is subject to revision as more facts become available.

Guess I won’t be going to town today or at least not any time soon!!! That’s only a few miles, West of me!!!
To the traveler that had to wait twenty minutes to get through, I am sure Caltrans is very sorry for causing that slide to wreck your day. It could have come down on you friend. Be safe, 36 comes with prizes for those not following good driving rules.
A shame indeed they were only delayed a few minutes instead of being buried or being carried over the edge, into the river!!!
“All a friend can say is ain’t it a shame.”
To the traveler who reported a 20 minute delay….. Thanks for the heads up that there is a delay! They weren’t bitching about caltrans making them wait. They were simply passing along the possible wait time.
That was my take as well. It was a statement of fact.
