A new section of Highway 1 along the Sonoma Coast is open. It runs about three-fourths of a mile between Bodega Bay and Jenner and includes an 850-foot-long bridge above Scotty Creek. It also has a protected pathway for cyclists and pedestrians with a view of the ocean. The new section is part of a $62.5 million redesign of the highway and Scotty Beach area. Several beach access features are still to come including an extension of the California Coastal Trail along the original highway, and a bike and pedestrian bridge across Scotty Creek near the beach.
