Some planned closures of freeway interchange in Boyle Heights postponed

Caltrans on Friday announced they are postponing several of the planned closures of the interchange of the 10, 5 and 60 freeways in Boyle Heights.

Expected weekend rain will force a delay for some parts of the planned bridge repair and joint sealing project.

Postponed closures include:

• The eastbound 10 Freeway connector to northbound 5 Freeway, which was scheduled to last from 10 p.m. Friday to 7 a.m. Saturday
• The northbound 5 Freeway and westbound 60 Freeway connectors to the westbound 10 Freeway, which was scheduled to last from 11 p.m. Saturday to 9 a.m. Sunday
• The eastbound 10 Freeway connector to the northbound 5 Freeway, which was scheduled to last from 10 p.m. Saturday to 8 a.m. Sunday

The postponement for the two Saturday night closures is due to rain, but no reason was given for the Friday night closure.

A fourth closure, the northbound 5 Freeway and westbound 60 Freeway connectors to the westbound 10 Freeway, remains scheduled. It will be in effect from 8 p.m. Friday to 6 a.m. Saturday.

Detours will be provided. For more information, visit quickmap.dot.ca.gov or twitter.com/CaltransDist7.
