LA MIRADA- Work began last week to remove one of the two overpass bridges on Valley View Avenue over the I-5 Freeway.
The bridge removal will require overnight closures of the freeway Monday night Feb. 6 through the night of Friday Feb 11. Closures overnight are also scheduled for the following week Sunday Feb 13, Monday Feb. 13 and overnight o Tuesday Feb 14.
Caltrans will set up detours that will take motorists around the construction.
The work is part of the I-5 freeway widening project that will increase freeway capacity when complete by adding two lanes of travel in each direction from the Orange County Line to the 605 freeway.. One lane in each direction of travel will be reserved for High Occupancy Traffic (H.O.V.) use.
Traffic on Valley View Avenue crossing the freeway will be routed onto the remaining overpass bridge which will only have a single lane of traffic for each direction.
Motorists can expect delays in this area at most times of the day and alternate routes of travel are recommended.
