West Los Angeles - All lanes of the northbound San Diego Freeway (I-405) from Getty Center Drive to Greenleaf Street will be closed nightly Tuesday, February 23 and Wednesday, February 24 between 1 a.m. and up to 6 a.m.

All lanes of southbound I-405 from Santa Monica Boulevard to National Boulevard will be closed nightly Thursday, February 25 and Friday, February 26 between 1 a.m. and 5 a.m.

The southbound I-405 connector to the westbound Santa Monica Freeway (I-10) will be closed nightly from Tuesday, February 23 to Friday, February 26 from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. The southbound I-405 connector to the eastbound Santa Monica Freeway (I-10) will be closed on those nights from 11 p.m. to 6 a.m.

All closures are weather-permitting and subject to change.

The closures are to enable striping for construction of the I-405 Sepulveda Pass Widening Project.

The I-405 Sepulveda Pass Widening Project, a joint effort between Metro and Caltrans, will complete the last remaining 10-mile gap on the northbound I-405 carpool lane system. Scheduled for completion in 2013, the project will significantly improve traffic flow for northbound I-405 commuters, providing a continuous carpool lane from Orange County to the San Fernando Valley.
