They’ve managed to clear the southbound lanes of 101 at Olive Mill as you can see in this 2pm (Wednesday) aerial. It may only be open for trucks and equipment for a while, but this is an exciting milestone. At the top you can also see that they’re hard at work clearing the drain just West of the bridge. Also making rapid progress on the northbound lanes with only a fairly short section of deep mud remaining.

23 Plus people died in the mud slides and they haven’t found everyone yet, plus there is all kinds of crap in the water and mud have some respect and wait it out.
Thanks for the reminder of why the recovery effort has taken so long, Roger. In addition to the somber issues you mention, they also need to be careful to protect worker health and safety and to balance speed with sustainable practices. The scale and quality of all this is *really* impressive. Thanks to Edhat and your many personal contributions to keeping us informed, Roger.
Your Our Eye in the Sky and you see more than I John Thank You!
Any excuse to slow the process down, hey? You know that 100s of people are not able to get to work because of the closure of the 101? And during this time they are not drawing a paycheck and still having to pay rent, utilities and other costs of living. Nice to see where your priorities lie.
The comment, “Any excuse to slow the process down” is a mystery to me. With a m monumental job to do, someone thinks it is slow on purpose? Some are just happy being critics, a boost for their low self esteem I guess.
