Topanga Canyon Boulevard Closure | Topanga
The California Department of Transportation announced there will be a full road closure on April 11 from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. of all lanes on Topanga Canyon Boulevard between Pacific Coast Highway and Grand View Drive in Topanga as part of a rock stabilization project. The project arose after multiple debris slides caused closures of Topanga Canyon Boulevard during winter storms.
Signs will advise motorists to detour to use US-101, Las Virgenes Road and Malibu Canyon Road. Due to delays, motorists are strongly advised to choose an alternate route or avoid the area, and be “Work Zone Alert” and “Slow for the Cone Zone.” The town of Topanga will remain open to motorists.
All work is weather permitting and subject to change. For more information, drivers can check traffic conditions before they leave on Caltrans at quickmap.dot.ca.gov.
