Topline:
A stretch of Topanga Canyon Boulevard has reopened, after a brief closure prompted by a mudslide.
The backstory: The 3.6-mile stretch of Topanga Canyon Boulevard — between Pacific Coast Highway and Grand View Drive — has been undergoing maintenance work since the Palisades Fire. This week's rains led to a mudslide.
The mudslide: Earlier Wednesday, Caltrans said the road would be closed "until further notice." Early in the afternoon, the work was done: "Maintenance crews have cleared debris and slide material from the roadway, and it is now reopened to the public with previous restrictions," the agency said in a news release.
Road work ongoing: The road is still closed between midnight and 5 a.m. daily.
