Rumble strips are being etched into Highway 1 along the Central Coast corridor starting North of Cayucos. But these strips have proven to be thought out a little better then most rumble strips. They're being placed adjacent to the traffic lane leaving ample space for cyclists. In addition they're not to intrusive as rumble strips go.
Where most rumble strips have proven to be the enemy of cyclists. These rumbles are cyclist friendly and provide a wake up call to motorists who are drifting into the shoulder while leaving plenty of room for cyclists to navigate within the shoulder of this busy stretch of Hwy 1.
The only down side may be when there is a large group of cyclists and a lot passing is being done.
