FAQs | Caltrans
The freeway will be posted at the next on-ramp 
 with a sign that says "Bicycles Prohibited." 

How do highways and bridges get named after people?

Only the California State Legislature 
 can officially name a state highway. This is done in 
 the form of a "Concurrent Resolution (CR)," which can 
 be introduced by either the Assembly (ACR) or by the 
 Senate (SCR). The resolution will appear in the statutes 
 of the year it was passed. Once done, Caltrans puts 
 up signs, which are paid for by the sponsors or friends 
 of the person it is being named after.

What is the "Adopt-a-Highway" program?

Since the Adopt-a-Highway program began 
 in 1989, more than 120,000 Californians representing 
 more than 6,000 groups have volunteered to pick up roadside 
 litter, paint over graffiti, plant wildflowers and perform 
 other beautification work. Typically a group agrees 
 to "adopt" a two-mile section of freeway or highway, 
 and keep it litter-free for two years. Caltrans trains 
 the volunteers and provides them with white hard hats, 
 vests and bags. Caltrans also erects special blue and 
 white signs alongside the highway to recognize the good 
 deed. Over the years, Adopt-a-Highway volunteers have 
 collected more than 423,000 cubic yards of litter and 
 debris, or enough trash to fill a line of dump trucks, 
 parked bumper-to-bumper, from San Francisco to San Luis 
 Obispo. Their efforts have provided the state with an 
 estimated $120 million in free labor, and enabled Caltrans 
 maintenance workers to concentrate on more pressing 
 needs. To participate in the program, contact your local 
 Caltrans office and ask to speak to the "Adopt-a-Highway" 
 coordinator, or call 916-654-2926.

Can I use a freeway call box to let someone know I'm stuck in traffic and will be late?

No. They are strictly to report roadside 
 emergencies to the California Highway Patrol dispatch 
 center.
FAQs
Loud disturbing noise is prohibited at all times, as well as disturbing visitors who are asleep between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m.

Trails

Are dogs allowed on trails or beaches?In general, dogs are not allowed on trails or beaches with a few exceptions. If dogs are allowed, they must always be on a six-foot leash. For more information by district and park, click here.
Service dogs, as defined by the Americans with Disability Act, are allowed throughout our parks. For more information on service dogs in state parks read our brochure and our webpage.

Weapons

Can I carry a concealed weapon in a state park if I have a Carrying Concealed Weapon (CCW) permit?Possibly yes. The carrying and possession of firearms in California’s state parks is generally prohibited and is only allowed per Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations (CCR), Section 4313.
Exceptions to this regulation are granted in the California Penal Code Section 25900 pertaining to law enforcement and retired law enforcement personnel, and PC Section 26010 for citizens with Carry Concealed Weapon (CCW) permits. However, any restrictions placed on the CCW by the issuing agency would also be applicable in California’s state parks. For example, if the CCW is only valid in the CCW holder’s city of residence or county, it would not be valid in a state park unit located outside the city or county of the holder. Some CCWs also prohibit carrying in “parks” and this would include state park lands, if that is the case.

Weddings

Can I get married in a California state park?Yes, but a permit is required even for a small group. Each park or region has an event/permit coordinator. To obtain contact information, please email us at info@parks.ca.gov. For information specific to hosting a wedding in a state park, click here.

Mussel Fee (Quagga) Sticker

 California DMV-registered vessels operating in fresh waterways must display a current “Mussel Fee Sticker” on the vessel’s hull next to the registration sticker.

Places to Boat in CA

 No matter where you boat in California, a water adventure awaits you—each one as big and unique as the state itself. It can be majestic as sailing around San Francisco Bay within view of the Golden Gate Bridge, or as heart-thumping as riding the flows of the Lower Kern River. Pick a destination!
 

Pump Out Stations

 Pump it. Don’t Dump it! It’s against the law. Raw sewage can spread disease, contaminate shellfish beds, and lower oxygen levels in water.
