With California Freeway damaged by mudslides, commuters find alternatives

Jan 17, 2018
California commuters are relying on whale watching ferries and Amtrack to get to work while the 101 Freeway is under repair.
The Amtrak Pacific Surfliner is operating more (and longer) commuter trains along the Santa Barbara-Ventura coast while the 101 Freeway and other major roadways are closed off due to storm and mudslide damage.
