The Interstate-210 (I-210) is scheduled to undergo a 55-hour weekend closure of westbound lanes at Roxford Street in Sylmar for paving work beginning next Friday, which may affect travel for Santa Clarita commuters.
The California Department of Transportation (CalTrans) announced the remaining 55-hour full closures of westbound I-210 at Roxford Street in Sylmar this summer, with the next closure taking place over the duration of next weekend.
Full closures of westbound I-210 at Roxford Street are expected to take place over the following weekends:

CalTrans is urging commuters to be “Work Zone Alert” and to “Slow for the Cone Zone.”
Motorists are encouraged to use State Route 118 (SR-118) as an alternate route to reach their destination and to avoid the area of the full closure, according to CalTrans.
Residents and local businesses located near the freeway may experience noise, vibrations and dust associated with construction activities, according to CalTrans.
All closures are weather permitting and are subject to change. Commuters should expect delays and are encouraged to check traffic conditions before leaving to their destination by visiting the CalTrans Quickmap, according to CalTrans.
The project is funded through Senate Bill 1 (SB1), the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017, CalTrans representatives said.
