[edit] Question

Can anyone state, how long it takes to drive from LA to san franciso on csr1? -pedro

[edit] Layout

What do I do with the state law section of this page? I had to use the {{-}} to push the section down... but since the routebox is huge it leaves lots of blank space... --Rschen7754 23:44, Jun 11, 2005 (UTC)

If you want to know the truth, I think the law section detracts from the article. If the California highway code was put into a repository such as Wikisource, and then linked to from the article, it would be much better. Gentgeen 17:54, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)
However, the WikiProject specifications require that a state law section be placed in the article...--Rschen7754 18:01, Jun 17, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] History and future aspirations

Does anyone know any history or future aspirations for CA-1? --Rschen7754 17:36, Jun 17, 2005 (UTC)

There are plans to move the route along Rice Avenue in Oxnard and move the 101/1 interchange three miles east. That's about it. Floydspinky71 01:47, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

Some history would be helpful, e.g., an indication of when it was first built, or first named as a unit.--24.52.254.62 21:07, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Northern end; also picture

Highway 1? In Ferndale? I didn't know it went north of Leggett, where it meets 101. (Nor does Mapquest.)

Also, since we don't know the source of the photo, are we quite sure it's Hwy 1? I'm not saying it isn't, but it looks a great deal like the road from Four Corners (Mill Valley) to Muir Woods. It would be nice to have a pic with some ocean in it, which would be unambiguous as well as picturesque. Maybe I'll get around to taking one. Dandrake 23:48, Jun 20, 2005 (UTC)

I have added a picture of mine to the article, looking northward along the coast. I personally think its more pleasing than the other picture (because the other picture looks to be taken on a stormy day), but obviously more is better. If anyone can improve the layout i'd be appreciative, i cant figure out a way to align it better. -Lanoitarus 05:07, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Infobox

The infobox on this article is too long. Can't y'all find some other way to hold that information? SchmuckyTheCat 22:28, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

We can certainly cut down on the list of "Major cities and towns". -Will Beback 22:31, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
Ouch. A lot of the information in the current infobox would be better served by being in the article itself; the list of major cities that Route 1 runs through is great information, but isn't especially well-served in a "quick reference" fashion. EVula 23:00, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

We can switch to {{infobox CA Route}} as in User:SPUI/State Route 15 (California). --SPUI (talk - don't use sorted stub templates!) 00:46, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

We have debates about this, just look around through the road Wp pages. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs)

Also the routebox has been cut down significantly as of yesterday to major cities and junctions so it should be fine now.JohnnyBGood 18:35, 3 March 2006 (UTC)


The current infobox is not working right on this page.Richard Hendricks 00:15, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

Any problems, please sort on talk page. Rich Farmbrough 11:36 8 March 2006 (UTC).

[edit] Exit list

Could we still have junctions, in a separate article? Maybe an exit list? Somewhere along the lines of California State Route 1 (Exit list) or similar? --Geopgeop 08:01, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

Ok, I added it in. It's still incomplete as I haven't put in statewide postmiles (the Cal-Nexus exit numbers are somewhat of that, but true numbers will need to be added eventually). If anybody can do the postmile calculations using the California bridge logs at http://www.dot.ca.gov/hq/structur/strmaint/brlog2.htm , I ask that you please do. --Geopgeop 06:42, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Due to rains...

the earth has cracked under the roadbed of Route 1 near Devil's Slide. This means the road to Pacifica has been CLOSED indefinitely. --Geopgeop 07:39, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

I added an external link to Coastsider.com because of the Devil's Slide closure. I'm still pretty new here, so if I shouldn't have done that, please let me know. Thanks! --Clarinetplayer 03:54, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Missing pieces

It seems to me that various smaller pieces of the highway description are missing. For example, between Lincoln Boulevard and PCH Santa Monica, 1 runs on Olympic Boulevard; between I-280 and 19th Ave., 1 runs on Juniperro Serra Boulevard; between Park Presidio and the bridge, it runs along the approach known as Doyle Dr.; and in Point Arena, it is both Main St. and School St. Is this correct, and are there any other missing pieces? (Also, Leggett is far north of the S.F. Bay Area, so this section should be renamed.) Calbaer 00:43, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

  • Feel free to add more details. I was the one who originally rewrote it back in January. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 00:54, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
