Overnight Lane, Ramp Closures Planned On 605 Freeway In Baldwin Park: Caltrans

BALDWIN PARK, CA — Overnight lane and ramp closures are scheduled for both directions of the 605 Freeway between Santa Fe Springs and Baldwin Park as crews continue a paving and highway enhancement project, Caltrans said on Monday.

The closures are scheduled for Monday night, Nov. 9, through Thursday night, Nov. 12, and will affect portions of the 605, 10, 5, and 60 freeways, according to Caltrans.

Motorists on the northbound and southbound 605 Freeway can expect up to two lanes to close between the 10 Freeway and Telegraph Road from as early as 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. Corresponding southbound on- and off-ramps may also close between 7 p.m. and as late as 6 a.m. as work progresses, Caltrans said.

Additional overnight closures will affect freeway connectors, including:

• Northbound and southbound 605 Freeway connectors to eastbound and westbound 60 Freeway, beginning as early as 7 p.m. and lasting until as late as 6 a.m.
• Eastbound and westbound 60 Freeway connectors to northbound and southbound 605 Freeway during the same overnight hours.
• Eastbound and westbound 10 Freeway connectors to northbound and southbound 605 Freeway, with closures beginning as early as 7 p.m.
• Northbound and southbound 5 Freeway connectors to northbound 605 Freeway, with closures beginning as early as 7 p.m.

Caltrans said ramps will be closed sequentially as construction progresses. No two consecutive ramps will be closed at the same time.

Motorists were encouraged to plan ahead, allow additional travel time and consider alternate routes when traveling through the affected areas during overnight hours.
