FLORENCE AVENUE INTERCHANGE PROJECT
The week of Nov. 12, crews will continue work to construct the northbound I-5 Florence Avenue on-ramp and the adjacent sound
wall. Construction activities will include (but not limited
to) backfilling using a vibratory roller, forming sections
of the wall, and pouring concrete.
A portion of the sidewalk on Longworth Avenue, adjacent to
the northbound I-5, has been closed to accommodate sound
wall reconstruction. A chain link fence has been installed
to close this area of the sidewalk from public access
through the end of 2017. The sidewalk will be restored
once sound wall construction is complete. While the sidewalk
is being reconstructed, the sidewalk across the street
from this work is open and accessible for public use.
At the end of November (exact date TBD), crews are preparing
to move into the next stage of construction on the Florence
Avenue bridge (
Stage 2 Phase 1). In this stage, traffic will
be shifted onto the newly constructed south half of the
Florence Avenue bridge and there will be two lanes for
westbound traffic and one lane for eastbound traffic.
In addition, crews will begin reconstructing the intersection
of Orr and Day Road at Florence Avenue. Please note,
there will be no access to Orr and Day Road from Florence
Avenue for approximately two months (weather permitting),
while the intersection is being reconstructed. The new
temporary traffic configuration for Stage 2 Phase 1 is
shown on the map below; closure areas are shown in
red. To view all of the construction staging maps
for the Florence Avenue bridge, visit the
project website.
IMPERIAL HIGHWAY & PIONEER BOULEVARD PROJECT
Starting Monday, Nov. 13 through Friday, Nov. 17, crews
will close Pioneer Boulevard to traffic in both directions
between Crewe Street and Imperial Highway, nightly,
between 7:30 p.m. and 6 a.m. As part of this work
the northbound I-5 Pioneer Boulevard on-ramp will
also be closed. The closure area is shown in
red on the map below; the detour routes are
shown in
green.
Crews have closed the sidewalk along westbound Imperial
Highway, between Paddison Avenue and Pioneer Boulevard,
for construction activity. This portion of the sidewalk
will be closed for the next several months. Pedestrians
should follow detour signs and watch for motorists;
the pedestrian detour route is shown on the map below
in green; the sidewalk closure area is shown in
red.
As crews work on Imperial Highway, Norwalk Boulevard
and Pioneer Boulevard bridges at I-5, one lane in
each direction may be closed on each street (at I-5)
during the daytime, between 8:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m.
ROSECRANS AVENUE & BLOOMFIELD AVENUE
BRIDGE PROJECT
Over the next few weeks crews may take intermittent daytime
lane closures on Rosecrans Avenue at I-5, Mondays
through Fridays between 8:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. At
least one lane will remain open in each direction
on Rosecrans Avenue at all times. These lane closures
are needed to complete installation of overhead signs
and to pour curb and gutter.
The week of Nov. 26 crews are tentatively planning nighttime
full closures on northbound and southbound I-5 at
Rosecrans Avenue, in order to restripe the freeway
and shift k-rail. On Wednesday night, Nov. 29 crews
will close northbound I-5 and on Thursday night,
Nov. 30 and Friday night, Dec. 1 crews will close
southbound I-5. Additional information regarding
this work, including closure limits, times and recommended
detour routes, will be provided as details are finalized.
This information can also be found on the project Google
map
