NORTHBOUND SEPULVEDA BOULEVARD TUNNEL REDUCED TO ONE LANE TONIGHT: PASSENGERS ADVISED TO ALLOW EXTRA TIME TO REACH LAX
(Los Angeles, California – April 27, 2016)Caltrans has notified airport officials that two northbound lanes of Sepulveda Boulevard from Imperial Highway through the Sepulveda Tunnel near Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) will close Wednesday night (tonight), April 27, beginning at 11 p.m. to 5 a.m. on Thursday, April 28. All lanes of southbound Sepulveda Boulevard through the tunnel will remain open. Airport officials advise passengers to allow extra time to reach LAX.
The lane closure is due to Caltrans completing repair of a damaged culvert.
The I-105 exit to northbound Sepulveda Boulevard will remain open. Motorists heading toward LAX from the south and east can also use Century Boulevard to reach the Central Terminal Area. Access to LAX is also available via the 96th Street bridge and from southbound Sepulveda Boulevard.
More information about the repair work is available from the Caltrans District 7 Public Affairs Office at 213-897-3656.
LAX, the sixth-busiest airport in the world serving nearly 66 million guests in 2022, is owned and operated by Los Angeles World Airports (LAWA), a proprietary, revenue-generating department of the City of Los Angeles that also governs Van Nuys Airport (VNY). As the international gateway to the Southern California region, LAX and its partners are dedicated to meeting global airport standards for customer satisfaction, safety, regional economic leadership, organizational performance and sustainability.
To better serve the millions of domestic and international guests that travel through LAX each year, the airport is undergoing a multi-billion-dollar capital improvement program to modernize its entire campus. Initiatives underway include an Automated People Mover, a Consolidated Rental Car Facility and two projects that will each add over one million square feet to the airport's existing property: Terminal 9 and Concourse 0.
