CALTRANS EMERGENCY. Last weekend, Memorial, a vehicle had a run-in with the southern barrier to the detour. I hope no one was hurt.
I think this western turn on to Miramar Dr. should be blocked, until the Medio bridge is repaired.
If not blocked, this entrance needs to be widened. See drawing below.
What do you think?
Before the vehicle pushed the barrier west. Here are possible improvements to make the detour safer.

One accident was reported by a nearby neighbor, Dan Charles, on Nextdoor. A bicyclist fell off their bike and had to be taken to the Seton Moss Beach emergency room due to managing the turn with a car.
Here is a possible, easy solution.
