Northbound 405 Freeway Closed Saturday Night in the Sepulveda Pass

Northbound 405 Freeway Closed Saturday Night in the Sepulveda Pass

It's not Carmaggedon, but northbound lanes of the San Diego (405) Freeway in the Sepulveda Pass will be closed starting at 11 p.m. Saturday night, Metro officials said.

Northbound lane closures on the 405 in the middle of the pass will start at 11 p.m. tonight, and the entire northbound 405 will be closed by 1 a.m. Sunday. The barricades are supposed to be clear by 7 a.m. Sunday.

Early morning traffic will be detoured onto Sepulveda Boulevard, through the old tunnel and into the valley. The detoured traffic can re-enter the freeway near Ventura Boulevard, Metro officials said.

The northbound on-ramps at Getty Center and Mulholland drives will be closed during that period as well. Southbound traffic will not be substantively affected, Metro officials said.

Contractors will remove and replace old overhead freeway signs, forcing the northbound freeway to be shut down at Getty Center Drive, the agency said.
