Roads cracking and homes sinking, in the Los Angeles area. Residents seeing “new coastline”

Sharing is Caring!

Land movement in Rancho Palos Verdes has been accelerating, causing significant damage to roads and homes. Experts have noted that the land is moving at a rate of about 12 inches per week in some areas. This movement has resulted in large cracks in roads and homes sinking. Additionally, the shifting land has created a new stretch of coastline.

Regarding Encino, residents have been dealing with a dangerous six-foot sinkhole and have been in communication with various city agencies to address the issue.
