All two-wheeled vehicles including bicycles, motorcycles, and scooters are temporarily banned in a stretch of Rancho Palos Verdes due to land movement, officials announced Thursday. The ban affecting Palos Verdes Drive South from Wayfarers Chapel to Schooner Drive was implemented by city council Tuesday in order to prevent any injuries due to the poor condition of the roadway. Land in that area is moving at a rate of 7 to 12 inches per week, officials said.

Last month, the chapel's executive director announced the chapel would be disassembled and hopefully relocated.
