Traffic Advisory

There are warnings of 405 closures this weekend in the UCLA area on the Westwood-Century City Patch (excerpts):

As drivers are warned of I-405 closures starting Saturday in preparation for Carmageddon II, they are also learning the full Sepulveda Pass Improvements Project is running about four to six months behind schedule. At a community meeting Thursday night in the Skirball Cultural Center, project manager Michael Barbour said crews have encountered delays in getting the Mulholland Bridge ready for the full freeway closure Sept. 29 to Sept. 30.
But in preparation for the second phase of the Mulholland Bridge demolition and reconstruction, drivers should expect early 405 full closures of the northbound and southbound lanes to take place this weekend and next weekend leading up to Carmageddon II when both sides of the freeway will be shut down...
