Westwood/UCLA Station Deck Removal 

Summary 

Decking removal at the Westwood/UCLA Station will continue on Friday, January 23 at 9pm. Work is anticipated to end at 6am on Monday, January 25. 

This work will require the closure of westbound Wilshire Bl between Veteran Av and Westwood Bl as well as the reduction of eastbound Wilshire to two lanes between Veteran Ave. and Westwood Bl. Decking removal is anticipated to require an additional four weekends of work ending in February. 

Construction this weekend will limit turns at the Wilshire Bl/Westwood Bl intersection. 

Traffic Control

Traffic on westbound Wilshire Bl will be detoured at Westwood Bl to Santa Monica Blvd via portable changeable message boards located at various locations. Traffic will remain open on eastbound Wilshire Bl; however, since eastbound Wilshire Bl will be reduced to two lanes, message boards will be placed to encourage motorists to utilize Santa Monica Blvd via Sepulveda Blvd in case of heavy congestion.

Friday, January 23 at 9pm until Monday, January 25 at 6am.
