TRAFFIC ADVISORY: CalTrans Announces Additional Closures of Glenn Anderson Freeway (I-105)

Both the westbound and eastbound I-105 access ramps leading to and from the Sepulveda Tunnel at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) will be closed due to the widening of those ramps by the California Department of Transportation (CalTrans). Two projects will widen and resurface the Sepulveda Boulevard on- and off-ramps. The closures will be in effect both during the day and nightly at various hours.

Airport officials recommend motorists use alternate routes if arriving via the westbound I-105. These include exiting at La Cienega and Aviation Boulevards heading north and taking Century Blvd. into LAX, or exiting at Century Blvd. from the I-405 and traveling west to LAX.

Motorists exiting the airport can take eastbound Century Blvd. to southbound I-405 to reach the I-105. Closures are subject to change.
