I agree that this will ease some of the 'holiday/weekend' traveling north/south folks. Along with the recent addition of Paso Robles, the crunch should be temporarily eased. But as more of these infernal electric cars keep getting sold at record pace - well, you know.
Yes, most people have their own preferred way of getting to their destination (north/south in this section of Calif). US 101: the shortest major link SF to LA and I-5: the alternative route - not the shortest (but doesn't mean necessarily not the quickest).
Oh, there are variations, combinations of the two based mostly on specific origin and destination. Some cut across locations to the other route. Sometimes sudden changes of route due to conditions (traffic and weather).
Trying to plan the perfect SpC development must be a major task. Placing resources in a location that only helps 2-3 times a year is a big decision.
But, I like these pop up surprises. I would keep an eye out for another surprise of this sort popping up on the US 101 route.
