A full directional closure of the 405 Freeway in each direction will take place tonight for 10 hours from 10 p.m. for reconstruction work to be performed on the northern half of the Skirball Bridge, weather permitting.
Only one direction of the 405 freeway will be closed at one time tonight starting at 10 p.m.
It will begin with the closure of the southbound direction followed by the closure of the northbound direction.
Ramps within the freeway closure limits may close as early as 7 p.m. and freeway lanes may close as early as 10 p.m., leading up to the full directional freeway closure beginning at midnight.
This activity is anticipated to require the closure of Skirball Bridge between the hours of 10 p.m. to 6 a.m on Saturday.
The contractor is anticipated to perform the concrete pour to form the deck on the bridge tonight during the closure to traffic.
Detour maps are available at www.metro.net/I405.
