Yeah, is it really news beyond “maintainers of somewhat famous highway didn’t do very good erosion control over the years and are now suffering the consequences of that”?
- Gibbon1 3y agoIt's more like highway built on fundamentally unstable coastal geology[1] falls into the ocean here and there. [1] California is basically schmutz scraped off a subducting plate over the last 100 million years. Friend worked on a job where they excavated into a hillside behind a house and found a 10 inch wide crack filled with wet clay.
- beej71 3y agoThis coastline is incredibly unstable. They've done exceptional erosion control over the years, and only this much has happened.
