Good News! Traffic is Traveling Through the Hwy 101 Closure
The closure caused missed appointments, dangerous detours, closed one school, and frustrated drivers.
According to the California Highway Patrol Incident Information Page, one lane is open now but expect delays of 20 to 30 minutes. “The road will remain one-way until further notice,” according to Phil Frisbie, Jr. Caltrans Chief of Public Information.

Reopened at 12:17? It’s not 2:17 yet
Future time travelers…haha! Just opened up on the south side at 12:30. Hope it stays open.
Sorry, typo! Fixed.
For what it’s worth….. Typo still appears on the news stream scroll page or front page of the story (whatever you call it).
Argh! I’m having a bad couple of days. Fixed. Thank you.
Don’t sweat it, Kym. Minor typos, and the like, are signs that a real human is creating what we readers enjoy and benefit from. So, I think they actually add to your authenticity and that of your work. Authenticity is something that people crave, in this increasingly digital world.
THANK YOU!!
It is in the Midwest
But on the caltrans map it still shows full closure in legget. Am I going to be able to get all the way through from ukiah?! Please and thank you!
I looked and it isn’t showing it now. My info came from Caltrans so you should be just fine.
Thank you!!!!
Hoping to go through early tomorrow morning.
As long as it stays open, it’ll be open 24 hours a day, right?
Thanks so much for all that you do!
Unless something changes, it’s open 24 hours a day.
Went down at 930 am couldn’t pass traffic backed up for miles. Had it open with a 45 min delay for me around 12:30 pm, when came back around 9 pm they had the catch gate up etc but northbound lane still destroyed. Going to take a few days before it’s cleared but gilotti and caltrans did a great job getting that sucker running! Thanks guys
Just took this. You can see the tree came down
I hope the slide doesn’t restart.
Hi there, is highway 101 still open along this stretch? The caltrans website still says it is closed…
Thanks!
This is a post from March 10. No! It is not accurate for April 18. 101 has reclosed here NOW and is not expected to reopen until April 19th according to Caltrans.
I’m heading to Eureka next Wednesday I’m going to take 101 all the way if it reopened.
It is open.
I’m assuming it’s closed again. Any insight to when it reopens. Looking at a trip this weekend
It’s open.
