The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) has planned a 55-hour weekend full closure of the westbound Interstate 210 in Sylmar for paving work this weekend.
The closure is part of a series of 55-hour closures that are scheduled for the 210 in the San Fernando Valley over the next several months.
From 10 p.m. on Friday, July 9, through 5 a.m. on Monday, July 12, the following closures are set to be in place:
- Full closure of westbound I-210 between Interstate 5 (I-5) and Roxford Street
- Westbound Polk Street on-ramp
- Westbound Roxford Street on-ramp
- Westbound Yarnell Street on and off-ramp
- Westbound I-210 to I-5 Interchange
- Eastbound Paxton Street off-ramp
Motorists are advised to use State Route 118 (SR-118) as an alternate route to reach their destination and to avoid the area of the full closure.
Caltrans reminds drivers to be “Work Zone Alert” and to “Slow for the Cone Zone.”
Closures are set to occur only if weather permits, according to a statement from Caltrans.
The closure is part of a series of eight 55-hour closures that will be conducted on I-210 in the San Fernando Valley.
The work on the 210 is part of a $135.5 million project repaving and upgrading the 210 from Wheatland Avenue to the I-5, officials said. Overhead sign structures, traffic loop detectors, center median barrier, and the guardrail system are also set to be upgraded.
The project is funded through Senate Bill 1 (SB1), the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017, representatives said.
