LOS ANGELES — Caltrans announces weekend bus pad work in Segment A of the State Route 2 (SR-2) Multimodal Project in the Los Angeles community of West Los Angeles.
Construction work to replace bus pads along Santa Monica Boulevard (SR-2) near Wellesley Avenue will be happening Saturday, May 2 at 9 p.m. to Sunday, May 3 at 11 a.m. Santa Monica Boulevard will be reduced to one lane in both directions near Wellesley Avenue. Bus pads will be replaced on eastbound and westbound Santa Monica Boulevard. There will be no parking along eastbound or westbound Santa Monica Boulevard where the bus pad is being replaced.
Those traveling along the following routes will experience closures as follows:
Segment A (West Los Angeles): Saturday, May 2 to Sunday, May 3
- 9 p.m. Saturday, May 2 to 11 a.m. Sunday, May 3 eastbound and westbound Santa Monica Boulevard near Wellesley Avenue reduced to one lane in both directions for bus pad replacement

During lane closures, driveways to businesses will remain accessible. Motorists and community members may expect shoulder and parking restrictions during construction work on SR-2 in both directions. Signs will be posted in advance of parking restrictions.
This approximately $70.2 million project is happening along SR-2 from Centinela Avenue in Santa Monica to the SR-2 terminus in Echo Park. The multimodal project is comprised of three segments:
- Segment A is on Santa Monica Boulevard between Centinela Avenue and Interstate 405 in West Los Angeles. (1.4 miles)
- Segment B is on Santa Monica Boulevard between La Brea Avenue and U.S. 101 in Hollywood. (2.1 miles)
- Segment C is on Alvarado Street/Glendale Boulevard between northbound U.S. 101 on/off-ramps and northbound SR-2 terminus in Echo Park. (1.5 miles)
Once complete, the project will extend the pavement life and enhance safety along multiple segments of SR-2 in the city of Los Angeles.
