Upcoming Freeway and Road Closures For Thursday

Guess what?

There are a bunch of freeway, road and on-ramp closures coming up. 

"So?" we hear you saying. "There are always a bunch of closures in Southern California."

Yes, but we have a list of which routees in particular are no-goes, so you can avoid the traffic snarls. 

"Oh," we hear you saying. "Thank you! You are so cool. And also very good-looking."

Yes. Yes, we are.
