SANTA BARBARA COUNTY —A guardrail and rumple strip project on US 101 near the Casitas Pass off-ramp in Santa Barbara is set to begin overnight Sunday, June 14.
Travelers may encounter overnight intermittent southbound US 101 lane closures near the Casitas Pass off-ramp from 9 pm to 6 am. In addition to the overnight work, travelers may encounter intermittent daytime shoulder closures.
Travelers are advised to plan accordingly and anticipate possible delays. Use caution when traveling through active work zones and to allow additional travel time when traffic control operations are in effect.
