Intermittent Closures of North Access Road in Wilmington During Harry Bridges Boulevard Resurfacing
Traffic to the TraPac Container Terminal will be diverted at Fries Avenue
LOS ANGELES ― Caltrans announces the intermittent closure of North Access Road in Wilmington from July 6-18 while crews perform pavement resurfacing work on Harry Bridges Boulevard. During closures of North Access Road, all traffic to the TraPac Container Terminal will be diverted at Fries Avenue. Electronic message signs in the project area will denote the specific dates of closures.
Resurfacing activities on Harry Bridges Boulevard will primarily occur overnight, Monday night through Saturday morning, at 7 p.m. to 6 a.m. Daytime electrical work near North Access Road will occur on July 15-17 between 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. At least one lane in both directions of Harry Bridges Boulevard will remain open throughout the construction period.
During closures of North Access Road, traffic from Harry Bridges Boulevard to the TraPac Container Terminal will be detoured as follows:
- South on Fries Avenue; west on South Access Road; and north on Pier A Street.
All work on the Harry Bridges Boulevard corridor is expected to be completed from June 29 to early August. This resurfacing effort is part of a broader series of improvements to local roads that will be used or impacted by detour traffic during the 16-month closure of the Vincent Thomas Bridge, scheduled to begin on November 1, 2026.
More information about the the Vincent Thomas Bridge Deck Replacement Project is available at the project website. Skanska-CEC Joint Venture is the general contractor for the project.
