One year ago, Congress defunded public media. Now that we're 100% community funded, please become a sustaining member or increase your existing membership today.

It just wouldn't be living in L.A. if we didn't have a slew of scheduled overnight freeway closures.

In the San Fernando Valley, Caltrans will have overnight closures at the interchange of the 5 and 170 freeways. Three southbound lanes of the 5 and all transition lanes to the southbound 170 will be closed. The closures will occur on both Monday and Tuesday night starting at 11 p.m. and expected to reopen by 5 a.m.

In the San Gabriel Valley, the 10 freeway will be completely shut down in both directions between the 605 freeway and Puente Avenue, with similar closures on the 605. These closures will run Monday through Thursday night at 11 p.m., and expected to reopen by 4 a.m. the next morning.

Hopefully their overnight hours won't affect too many people. Happy commuting!

One year ago, Congress voted to defund public media, eliminating a critical $1.7 million from our budget every year going forward. But they couldn’t silence us, and we’re not going anywhere.
