In this Wednesday, Feb. 22, 2017 photo, Caltrans engineers evaluate storm damage near a large crack on the Pfeiffer Canyon Bridge on Highway 1 in Big Sur, Calif. The bill to repair California’s roadways hammered by floods and rockslides in an onslaught of storms this winter has reached nearly $600 million, more than double what the state budgeted for such emergencies, and the costs are mounting for other badly damaged infrastructure just two months into 2017. On the rain-soaked coast in Central California, the Pfeiffer Canyon Bridge has crumble beyond repair, blocking passage on the north-south Highway 1 route for up to a year. Until it is rebuilt, visitors can drive up to view the roughed coastline, then turn back. (David Royal /The Monterey County Herald via AP)
