Highway 1 Big Sur Coast Highway Management Plan

Welcome
In March 2004, the California Department of Transportation produced the Big Sur Coast Highway Management Plan (CHMP), intended to establish coordinated management of the Highway 1 corridor along this widely treasured coastline. The management plan covers an area along Highway 1 from the Carmel River in Monterey County to San Carpoforo Creek in northern San Luis Obispo County.
The Big Sur Coast Highway Management Plan consists of:
- Corridor Management Plan
- Management Guidelines
- Corridor Aesthetics (Guidelines, Northern map, Central map, Southern map)
- Storm Damage Response and Landslide Management (Guidelines, Northern map, Central map, Southern map)
- Vegetation Management (Guidelines)
A series of resource inventories is also available:
- Cultural Resources Inventory
- Historic Qualities
- Recreational Qualities
- Natural Qualities
- Geology-Sediment Yield
- Geology-Landslides
