Full closure for emergency project on Highway 18

Feb 6, 2020 | Uncategorized

The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) will perform rock scaling and rock splitting work on Highway 18 in the area known as the Narrows.


From Tuesday, Feb. 11 through Friday, Feb. 14, there will be a full highway closure that will begin at 7:00 a.m. and conclude at 5:00 p.m., each day, weather permitting.


A hard closure will be set up from State Route 138 to Lake Gregory Drive. There will be traffic breaks of approximately 15 minutes in length to allow vehicles through.


Motorists may wish to avoid the Narrows during that period of time by driving through Crestline and down the Crestline cutoff to reconnect with Highway 18.
