The Pajaro River levee breached early Saturday morning, flooding the community and nearby areas in Watsonville, and water levels have not receded.
The breach continues to impact surrounding infrastructure: As of 10am Sunday, the northbound lanes of Hwy 1 have been shut down from Salinas Road to Hwy 129 (Riverside Drive).
At 10:30am, the California Highway Patrol shut down the southbound lanes, too.
There is no estimate on when the road will reopen. Visit roads.dot.ca.gov for the latest on road closures.
