## Resource

Drivers, brace yourself—Caltrans is tackling major pavement rehab on I-405 through Sepulveda Pass, starting June 22nd, with overnight lane reductions and ramp closures from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m., Monday through Friday. A brief reprieve hits during the World Cup, with no closures between 5 a.m. Thursday and 5 a.m. Friday along the Lakewood Blvd to US-101 stretch. Expect speed limits to drop to 55 mph in some southbound zones. This $143M project aims to boost safety, smooth traffic flow, and extend pavement life between Van Nuys and Westwood. Ramps and lanes will be reduced—up to four lanes southbound between US-101 and Skirball Center Drive. Check Caltrans Quickmap for real-time updates, as schedules may shift due to weather or other factors. Nearby residents: prepare for noise and vibrations.
