TOPANGA, Calif. (CNS) — A 3.6-mile stretch of Topanga Canyon Boulevard between Pacific Coast Highway and Grand View Drive remains closed Saturday as a 55- hour shutdown continues while crews install an underground 84-inch pipe.
According to Caltrans, the road closed one minute after midnight Saturday and will remain blocked until 7 a.m. Monday. The same stretch of road has been undergoing nightly closures while crews work to repair damage from the Palisades Fire and winter storms. Caltrans officials said they hope to complete those repairs by summer.
The pipe being installed this weekend will be underneath and perpendicular to the roadway. According to Caltrans, the pipe is “designed to carry increased capacity of water and mud during rainstorms, reducing the amount of debris flow on the highway in future storms.”
Motorists traveling south on Topanga Canyon were advised to take the 101 Freeway south to the southbound 405 Freeway and then west on the 10 Freeway to reach PCH. Northbound motorists can take the same route in reverse, Caltrans officials said.
Topanga Canyon will remain open between Grand View Drive and the 101 Freeway, providing continued access to the Topanga area and local businesses.
