what would you do? -- captions by vitac -- it's raining a lot. maybe they're just going to slide across, but never like, oh, maybe the freeway can drop away. so it's just crazy. >> one of the most picturesque sections of california coastline suddenly gives way to a highway collapse. right now, tourists are stuck in place at a time when many families are on spring break, and the drive out is about as white knuckled as it gets. with that, we say, good evening and thanks for joining us, i'm dionne lim. tonight, state crews are racing to stabilize that crumbling chunk of highway one. storms took a bite out of the road just south of the rocky creek bridge, between big sur and carmel. abc
11:01 pm
seven news reporter j.r. stone talked to one traveler who drove over that stretch of highway less than an hour before it collapsed. he joins us now in studio j.r. >> diane. according to chp, at one point this weekend, between 1600 and 2000 people were stuck in big sur after this slide. it happened on a day when i'm told the rain was really coming down. this video comes from highway one near the rocky creek bridge in monterey county. you can see a section of the southbound lane going into big sur is now missing after it slid down the cliff saturday afternoon. no one was hurt, but caltrans immediately closed the highway, meaning no one in and no one out. >> i'm like, oh my gosh, like, are we going to be stuck here for weeks? like, what is happening? this was not planned. >> linda molinari was with her boyfriend saturday. they made a last minute decision to go have lunch in big sur, and ended up having to stay in their camper saturday night. they estimate that this slide happened just 30
11:02 pm
minutes after they drove along this lane. so that's just crazy to even think about. >> so many people are messaging me like, why don't you just go south and go around this road that goes over the hill, like, because one is closed south? also like that part slid away months ago. so there's literally no road that goes through the mountain to get over to 101 or anything. that's the only way caltrans says while they do monitor all of highway one, they hadn't been specifically eyeing this area. >> as for what's next, we'll try to immediately try and stabilize that outside edge and design a repair to make a structural fix at that location. caltrans will allow organized caravans of essential workers and residents to go through at 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. over the next few days. they're asking tourists to stay home. >> big sur is not the place to go right now. >> we are also encouraging people to stay away from the area. >> linda and her boyfriend were one of nearly 300 vehicles that
11:03 pm
made it out midday sunday, when the highway reopened from the first caltrans caravan. they took this video showing the long lines, then the damaged roadway. she's happy to be home, grateful they had their camper, but saddened to spend easter like they did. >> it was really hard when the firefighters said like, oh, you get to sleep here tonight. sorry it's not going to open like all of the normal, like big family gathering that happens like grandparents, you know, like it's easter tomorrow. what do you mean we can't go home? like we can't go to the hole. missed the whole family celebration. so amazing to get home. but still that bittersweet. like you missed a holiday. i'm just trying to go to lunch on the random day is certainly good news that linda eventually made it back to her home in hollister. >> the cause of this slide is under investigation, but it was really raining hard at the time of day when this happened. also, we've learned that all state parks and big sur will be closed until further notice. jr stone
