Need More Information: Slide on 140 Near Hites Cove

Does anyone have any more information on the mud/rock slide around Hites Cove on 140? Last I saw it was one way traffic. Caltrans isn’t showing anything on their website. Any information would be great. Thanks!

    According to caltrans website, the info is this:

    SR 140
    [IN THE CENTRAL CALIFORNIA AREA]
    VEHICLES OVER 45 FEET ARE PROHIBITED & 1-WAY CONTROLLED TRAFFIC FOR ALL
    OTHER VEHICLES 20 MI EAST OF MARIPOSA (MARIPOSA CO) 24 HRS A DAY 7 DAYS A WEEK
    – DUE TO SLIDE REPAIRS

    I remember driving in January and the bridge over the river and the small stretch of one way road is still there. Sometimes there is a wait for a few minutes at the lights at either end, but traffic flows without any issues

      Thanks for the info Sathish. There’s evidently a new slide though a little closer to Mariposa.
