Motorists can no longer turn left or make a U-turn between San Juan Road and San Miguel Canyon Road. Caltrans made the change to reduce the number of traffic collisions in the area.

Caltrans is re-striping this section of U.S. 101 and plans to add a raised curb and traffic signs prohibiting U-turns. Southbound motorists going to the Red Barn can now turn around at the U.S. 101-Highway 156 interchange.
