The southbound on-ramp, No. 1 (left) and No. 2 (center) lanes of US Highway 101 will be closed between Fairview Avenue and Patterson Avenue during the overnight hours on Thursday, Jan. 30 from 8 pm until 6 am.

This emergency ramp and lane closure is necessary to allow Caltrans to add two drainage inlets on the southbound shoulder of the highway.  This roadwork will include a grind and pave operation. 

Motorists headed southbound may exit US 101 at South Patterson Avenue.  Motorists can expect delays not to exceed 15 minutes.  Lane/Ramp closures will continue next week Monday through Thursday from 9 am until 4 pm and on Friday from 9 am until 2 pm.

The contractor for this $270,000 project is CalPortland Construction of Santa Maria, CA.  All work should be complete in mid-February, weather permitting.
