Facility Closed from State Route 56 to State Route 163

 

June 10, 2011 (San Diego) --Beginning Saturday, June 18, the Interstate 15 (I-15) Express Lanes will be closed for nine consecutive days from State Route 56 (SR 56) to State Route 163 (SR 163).

 

Motorists are encouraged to avoid peak commuting hours or adjust their schedules as traffic congestion is expected on I-15 during weekday commuting hours from Monday, June 20, through Friday, June 24.

 

When the Express Lanes reopen on June 27 there will be two additional Express Lanes in the median of the freeway that will allow Express Lanes users to travel in both directions twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week.

 

Additionally, beginning June 27, there will be an extended closure and relocation of the Express Lanes entrance and exit to/from I-15 near the I-15/SR 163 split for approximately three months. Detour signs will be posted to direct motorists to new Express Lane access points. This closure is necessary for crews to complete the critical, final work to fully open eight miles of expanded Express Lanes. Please see this link Freeway Closure for more information
