Plan ahead, drivers: Highway 101 traffic running slow through SLO County. Here’s why
Road work on Highway 101 caused traffic to slow to a crawl Tuesday morning in northern San Luis Obispo County.
Scheduled work by PG&E teams on trees along Highway 101 closed the No. 1 southbound lane from Main Street to San Ramon Road in Templeton, according to a California Highway Patrol post on X.
As of 10:52 p.m., southbound traffic was moving slowly, with traffic bottlenecked through Templeton and the delay extending north of town toward Paso Robles, according to Caltrans’ QuickMap.
An end time for the maintenance work had not been announced by Caltrans or CHP.
