Construction site chaos on I-5: Important closures from June 16 to 20!

The travelers on Interstate 5 (I-5) in the Castaic area will have to adjust to some adjustments in the coming days. As scvnews.com , a nightly carriageway is carried out from Monday, June 20, June 20, 2025. The construction site extends from the Lake Hughes Road to two miles north of the Templin Highway, near the Whitakers Sand Shed.

During the work, a trail is closed every day from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on the north and southern lane. On the night, from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m., up to three traces are even affected. Travelers should prepare to plan additional time for their trips and to drive carefully through the construction site areas. On Friday, June 20, the descent to the Templin Highway will also be closed between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. These adjustments are part of a larger project that has been carried out since April 2022 and include the exchange of concrete layers and the improvement of the drainage systems.

overview of the project

The comprehensive construction project, which started in April 2022, not only provides for the renewal of the lane ceiling, but also the stabilization of slopes due to the rock scaling and the construction of a retaining wall. It is ensured that no two consecutive descents are blocked at the same time during the work in order to make the flow of traffic as smoothly as possible.

Of course, Caltrans ensures that the information about the construction sites is up to date. If you want to stay up to date, you can find out more about the latest developments or the caltrans quickmap to learn more about closures and traffic conditions.
