 The Alpenhorn News - $10.5 million spent to repair ‘Narrows’
In the mid-1960s, this section was scheduled for full rehabilitation and widening, as demonstrated by the four-lane road built to the Crestline Bridge from San Bernardino.
However, the proposed widening of Highway 18 to four lanes all the way to Big Bear was stopped cold when an earthquake fault was discovered while rebuilding the Crestline Bridge for the road-widening project.
The Old Fire of 2003 burned all the railings and overheated the rocks on the mountainside as the fire jumped the road and burned into the Skyland, Horseshoe Bend and Arrowhead Highlands areas, threatening the entire community of Crestline numerous times.
