More 60 Freeway Closures Set This Week

The California Department of Transportation plans more State Route 60 closures this week.

The partial closures, which are subject to change, are due to construction of a $121.5 million pavement rehabilitation along the 60 freeway from Interstate 605 to State Route 57, according to a news release.

The project is expected to be finished in the fall of 2014, according to Caltrans. Detours will be posted.

The following is a schedule of the closures:

Monday, May 20, through Friday, May 24

Eastbound SR-60

• 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. – Up to three lanes between I-605 & Azusa Avenue
• 11 p.m. to 5 a.m. – High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lane CLOSED between I-605 & Azusa Avenue

Westbound SR-60

• 11 p.m. to 5 a.m. – Up to three lanes between southbound SR-57 & Azusa Avenue

Caltrans advises motorists to “Slow For The Cone Zone.”
