The freeway widening to add a carpool lane between Carpinteria and the county line will shut down a single southbound lane overnight next Wednesday and Thursday, January 22 and 23. Crews will be moving safety barriers in the construction area between 8 p.m. and 7 a.m., and one lane between Linden and Bailard avenues each night will be closed for their safety. That leaves one lane still open.
As well, some ramps will be closed as work on the slopes and soundwalls continue. From Monday, January 20, onward, as needed, the northbound highway on-ramp at Casitas Pass Road will close between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. while crew stain the slope paving and safety barrier.
During that week, the northbound on-ramp at Linden Avenue will also close during the day for work on the sound walls, but not at the same time that the Casitas Pass on-ramp will be closed. And the southbound 101 off-ramp at Linden remains closed temporarily.
