Prior to reconstruction, the accident rate on the El Portal Road was 2 to 4 times that of any other park road. The narrow travel lanes, constructed for the smaller size vehicles of the 1920s-30s, were largely to blame for these accidents. To enhance road safety, each travel lane is being widened by 18 inches and sharp curves are being slightly realigned.
