Abstract:US-101 is the primary route that provides direct access to the California’s
North Coast for commercial trucking year round, as well as for recreational
traffic especially during tourist season. There has been a recurring problem of
landslides around Confusion Hill on US-101 in northern Mendocino County
over the last decade, resulting in frequent road closures and high
maintenance costs at this location. When a major slide occurs that closes both
lanes, the traffic south of Confusion Hill may have to backtrack and detour
via Route-20/I-5/Rte 299 corridor, for an additional distance of 250 miles.
