There are several large construction projects along Highway 1 in Mendocino that are expected to cause traffic congestion throughout the next couple of summers. KZYX reports The Jack Peters Bridge and Navarro Ridge projects bookend the central coast and will cause traffic delays for residents and tourists between the village of Mendocino and Navarro Ridge. The Elk Creek Bridge is between Elk and Manchester and will impact those going south from HWY 128 to Manchester, Point Arena, and Gualala. All of these projects are expected to take two years to complete. Those wanting to travel along the Mendocino Coast should be able to avoid traffic delays by taking Highway 20.
