A portion of West Mountain Drive is temporarily closed at the 900 block of W. Mountain Drive due to an undermined roadway hazard which occurred on Feb. 20 during the recent storm.

The road is closed to through traffic at the following intersections:

West Mountain Drive and El Cielito Road
West Mountain Drive and Coyote Road
 
The Santa Barbara Public Works Department is currently assessing the ongoing precipitation and soil saturation on this portion of the roadway on West Mountain Drive and will reopen once repairs have been completed and deemed safe for travel.

Residents living on West Mountain Drive within the closed area will be able to safely access their homes.
