Update by the edhat staff
December 15, 2023

Caltrans has formally announced the northbound Gaviota Rest Area is now open following a major renovation to its wastewater and electrical systems.

The troubled rest stop opened for approximately one hour last month before Caltrans promptly closed it again.

On November 21, 2023, the state agency announced the opening ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday only to shut it down shortly after due to “unforeseen mechanical issues in the water supply outside of Caltrans control.”

Now on December 15, Caltrans is announcing its reopening.

The southbound Rest Area will re-open next Spring following the completion of the nearby slope repair project.
