Malibu– The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) announces overnight moving lane closures scheduled for northbound and southbound State Route 1 (Pacific Coast Highway / PCH) between Sunset Boulevard and Topanga Canyon Boulevard Monday through Friday starting May 6.
This overall project will repair or replace a total of twelve drainage culverts along PCH from south of Temescal Canyon Road to the Ventura County line. Work includes:
- Removing debris or flush sediment inside the pipes.
- Repairing joint seal of the pipes.
- Re-lining culvert barrels.
- Replacing damaged sections of pipe.
- Replacing entire sections of culverts.
- Replacing the culvert at Solstice Creek (near Corral Canyon Road) with a bridge under the highway. The proposed bridge replacing the existing culvert will allow steelhead trout to swim upstream.
The nights of Monday, May 6 & Tuesday, May 7 from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m.:
- One northbound lane will be closed from Sunset Boulevard to Topanga Canyon Boulevard for “potholing”, confirming the location of utility lines. This will be a moving closure, starting at Sunset Boulevard.
