Traffic has been increased a little, but not much. I was wondering why so. Since it has only one lane on each side, it is unusual to see heavy traffic. I guess people rather prefer to drive free way in CA. They have opened Camino Del Sur to Camino Del Norte this spring. And then they just opened Carmel Valley Rd toward 4S ranch over Black Mountain early this month.
Del Sur is slow growing, but selling in a steady pace. I hope the price will go down much faster pace, but it is not happening fast enough.

I jog a lot along Camino Del Sur, but do not remember much trash along the street. I agree the scenery looked dull due to its color, but I do not know what it is causing the problem.
I also jog along Carmel Valley Rd towards Fairbanks Ranch and Torrey Del Mar, but do not notice much difference. Maybe I am too tired of paying attention while jogging since all houses for sale are worth more than few millions.
