SAN DIEGO —Caltrans maintenance crews will close the northbound Interstate 5 (I-5) off-ramp to La Jolla Parkway tonight from 9 p.m. to 5 a.m. to finalize construction of a new concrete barrier that has replaced the guardrail on the approach to the bridge.
The ramp will be closed Saturday from 3 a.m. to 11 a.m. and Sunday to Thursday from 9 p.m. to 5 a.m. to install smart crash cushions, remove temporary construction barriers, striping work, cleaning, and demobilization.
Motorists looking to access La Jolla Parkway will continue north on I-5, exit at La Jolla Village Drive, turn left onto La Jolla Scenic Drive and turn right onto La Jolla Parkway.
Motorists are reminded to be Work Zone Alert if traveling in the area and to watch for highway workers and moving construction equipment.
The construction schedule is subject to change due to weather conditions, traffic incidents, or other construction-related reasons.
