Monterey Historics Road Warning
For anyone planning to visit the Monterey Area please be advised that Highway 1 north of Monterey is being resurfaced. I just drove on a section of Hwy 1 (with a rental car) last night from Hwy 156 into Monterey. They were putting down a fresh layer of asphalt. So unless you don't mind "undercoating" your car, I suggest that anyone comming in from the north avoid this area. I don't know how far to the north they are resurfacing but I wouldn't use Hwy 1 southbound, beyond Watsonville. Comming down 101 should be OK until hwy 68 at Salinas. 68 goes past Laguna Seca into Hwy 1 in Monterey. See ya this weekend.

slow lane for sure. You can also get off in Marina and get back on in Seaside. I just went out and checked my truck which I drove down/up
yesterday and its clean, no oil, asphalt, or sealer in the wheel wells.

With the amount of traffic that road gets I'm not going to worry about it, that is unless they put more down today. The Ferrari's and the Lambo's should have the road packed down before the Corvette's ever get there.

Hwy 156 into Monterey was no problem today or tonight, I do however like coming in on 68 so that I can make right turn into Laguna Seca.
