If you’re hitting the road early Monday morning for the Rose Parade in Pasadena, Caltrans says expect some detours.
Most of the shutdowns will begin Sunday night. On the eastbound side of the Ventura freeway, the Orange Grove Boulevard off-ramp will close and so will the westbound on-ramp.
Along the 210, Caltrans plans to close the westbound Sierra Madre Boulevard off-ramp. Same story on the other side with the Sierra Madre/San Gabriel Boulevard off-ramp.
Caltrans spokeswoman Judy Gish picks it up now with shutdowns to look out for along the 710, the Long Beach freeway.

“That’s going to be the southbound Del Mar Boulevard off ramp from 8 p.m. on the 1st to 11 a.m. on the 2nd. The northbound Del Mar Boulevard on-ramp from 8 p.m. on the 1st to 10 a.m. on the 2nd. And the northbound California Boulevard on-ramp from 6 p.m. on the 1st to 11 a.m. on the 2nd.”
Gish adds that Pasadena Avenue will be closed from Columbia Street to Del Mar Boulevard today and tomorrow.
Here's more information about taking public transportation to the parade.
At LAist, we believe in journalism without censorship and the right of a free press to speak truth to those in power. Our hard-hitting watchdog reporting on local government, climate, and the ongoing housing and homelessness crisis is trustworthy, independent and freely accessible to everyone thanks to the support of readers like you.
But the game has changed: Congress voted to eliminate funding for public media across the country. Here at LAist that means a loss of $1.7 million in our budget every year. We want to assure you that despite growing threats to free press and free speech, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust. Speaking frankly, the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news in our community.
We’re asking you to stand up for independent reporting that will not be silenced. With more individuals like you supporting this public service, we can continue to provide essential coverage for Southern Californians that you can’t find anywhere else. Become a monthly member today to help sustain this mission.
Thank you for your generous support and belief in the value of independent news.
