405, 605 and 22 Freeways to Experience Nighttime Closures All Week

Expect delays, as the West County Connector project will trigger closures on local freeways and ramps this week.

While the rest of the world braces for ‘carmaggedon’ with the weekend closure of the San Diego Freeway (405) at the Sepulveda Pass, Seal Beach, Los Alamitos and Long Beach residents will have to contend with their own freeway closures of slightly less biblical proportions.

All week, the West County Connectors Project will be in full swing with nighttime closures on the 405 and Garden Grove (22) and San Gabriel (605) freeways.

Multiple lanes in both directions of the 405 between Seal Beach Boulevard and the 605 will be closed every night through Saturday from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. Detour: At least one lane will be open in each direction.
