Caltrans Announces Upcoming Closures on SR-134 Freeway Bridge Over Arroyo in Pasadena

The California Department of Transportation, Caltrans, will begin nighttime work on the State Route 134 bridge over Arroyo Seco Natural Park in Pasadena as soon as Monday, April 10. The work will take place overnight on Monday through early Saturday morning each week for at least through the end of the month.

During this work, up to three lanes on eastbound SR 134 will close intermittently. In addition, there will be temporary closures of the eastbound SR 134 on-ramp from North San Rafael Avenue and the off-ramp from eastbound SR 134 to Orange Grove Boulevard.

These nighttime closures will allow crews to safely install an inspection platform on the eastbound portion of the bridge. Night work on the westbound portion will take place at a later date.

Upcoming closures include:

• Up to three lanes of eastbound SR 134 between North San Rafael Avenue and Orange Grove Boulevard
  • Monday through Thursday from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. the following day
  • Friday from 11 p.m. to 8 a.m. the following day
