Caltrans to Temporarily Close Three Eastbound Lanes of I-10 Freeway Starting at 10 a.m. on Friday, April 1

Summary of disruption: Three right-hand lanes of eastbound Interstate 10 (San Bernardino Freeway) from Azusa Avenue (State Route 39) to Citrus Avenue will be closed starting at 10 p.m. on Friday, April 1. The lanes are expected to reopen at 5 a.m. on Monday, April 4. In addition, the eastbound I-10 off- and on-ramps at Azusa Avenue and the on-ramps at Vincent Avenue will be shut down during the 55-hour weekend closure. Drivers should expect delays. All work is subject to change due to weather or construction-related issues. Closures may start and end later than scheduled, subject to weather and work conditions.     

Reason for disruption: Allow the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) to perform pavement rehabilitation during the 55-hour closure. Real-time traffic information can be found at http://quickmap.dot.ca.gov/.   

How does this affect me? Two to three left lanes, including the High-Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lanes, will remain open to all traffic between west of Azusa Avenue and Citrus Avenue off-ramp, except during overnight full closure. A full closure of all eastbound lanes from Vincent Avenue on-ramps to Citrus Avenue off-ramp is scheduled from 1 a.m. to 6 a.m. on Saturday, April 2, and from 12:01 a.m. to 5 a.m. on Monday, April 4. Detour signs will be posted. The closure of the Pacific Avenue/West Covina Parkway on-ramp to the eastbound I-10 is scheduled from 1 a.m. to 6 a.m. on Saturday, April 2, and from 12:01 a.m. to 5 a.m. on Monday, April 4. Detour signs will be posted. Westbound lanes will remain open.

What do I need to do? Expect delays. Slow down and proceed with caution when approaching the lane closures. Allow extra time to get to campus and follow posted detour signs.
