RISKY STRETCH OF L.A. HIGHWAY REOPENS

County hopes new measures can prevent crashes on portion of Mulholland Highway.
ERIC THAYER Los Angeles Times. SAFETY ADDITIONS on Mulholland Highway include more signs, updated road stripes and rumble strips.
For more than six years, adrenaline junkies have yearned for the moment that, once again, they can careen around the serpentine corners of a stretch of Mulholland Highway with the crisp mountain air rushing through their hair.
Their wait came to an end Tuesday as a 2.4-mile section of the road known as “the Snake” slithered back to life.
The area of the highway roughly between Kanan Road and Sierra Creek Road has been closed to vehicle traffic since early 2019 after it was charred in the Woolsey fire and further damaged by winter rains.
Before the closure, the Snake was known for attracting speeding motorcyclists and car races and frequent collisions.
Now, with a new set of safety improvements in place, L.A. County officials are hoping the road can shed its dangerous reputation.
