Labor Day / Central California / I-5 Lane Closures Posted by EGD [Email] (#663) [Profile/Gallery] (more from EGD) on Mon, 29 Aug 2011 16:42:12 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
FWIW, if any California Saabers are going between LA and Northern Calironia on I-5, note that the freeway is down to one lane in each direction essentially between Mile Markers 259 and 244 (near Buttonwillow).
A buddy got caught in that over the 4th of July and said it delayed him by one hour going south. He was able to call us ahead of time so we were able to take an alternate route.
I suspect Labor Day will be worse so we've already mapped out our alternate for this upcoming weekend. CALTRANS is saying delays up to three hours.
From http://www.caltrans.ca.gov:
