On the eve of International Workers Day, or May Day, Caltrans remembered Central Coast road maintenance workers who lost their lives on the job.

Santa Barbara County will develop an AI-powered map that helps cyclists identify safe routes in the region. Caltrans awarded the county a nearly $500,000 grant to develop the map with UC Santa Barbara.

A portion of a popular highway in Santa Barbara County has completely shut down due to large cracks that were found along the roadway.

Residents of San Luis Obispo County are now able to travel up to Big Sur thanks to a reopening of Highway 1.

Traveling by train on the Central Coast could soon get easier thanks to a million dollars in funding from the federal government.

Caltrans says crews have successfully fixed a sinkhole that caused the closure of a section of Highway 1 in Big Sur this week. The southern closure has now been moved back to Limekiln State Park.

There is ongoing work on Central Coast highways right now, both to repair winter storm damage and to make general improvements.

The California Transportation Commission awarded $1 billion for walking and biking projects for disadvantaged communities throughout the state last week. This will fund 93 new projects, including developments in San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara counties.
