The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) will hold a virtual, informational meeting at 6 p.m. Tuesday, June 10 for the Interstate 405 (I-405) Pavement Rehabilitation Project.
This project will extend the pavement life along I-405 in Los Angeles from the communities of Van Nuys to Westwood along with other upgrades and improvements. Construction is scheduled to begin in spring/summer 2025 and last through winter 2028/2029.
Once complete, the approximately $143.7 million project will rehabilitate pavement, enhance safety features, and improve pedestrian infrastructure along Interstate 405 (I-405) through the Sepulveda Pass.
The improvements will extend along I-405 from Victory Boulevard in the San Fernando Valley to Wilshire Boulevard in West Los Angeles, which is an essential commuter corridor from northern Los Angeles County and the San Fernando Valley to Los Angeles International Airport, south bay cities and Orange County. Pavement will be rehabilitated along approximately 92 lane miles including replacing sections between Victory Boulevard and Mulholland Drive and repairing sections of other lanes along I-405 between the project limits.
These renovations will enhance motorist’s safety, ride quality, and mobility along this stretch of roadway.
Caltrans will be hosting a virtual, public meeting with a project presentation on the following:
