Despite ongoing cleanup and restoration efforts following the Palisades Fire, a portion of the Pacific Coast Highway will reopen Sunday to traffic.

The beachside thoroughfare reopened in Malibu up to Coastline Drive on the north end Sunday, but remained closed between Coastline Drive and Entrada Drive.

Amid a disagreement between city and county officials, plans to remove all checkpoints for access to the Palisades community along Pacific Coast Highway have been delayed until Monday, when Los Angeles police will transfer responsibility for patrolling the area to the California Highway Patrol and the National Guard,
