I-105 ExpressLanes Project

Sound Wall and Roadway Construction on Eastbound I-105 between Avalon Boulevard and Stanford Avenue

Summary:

Metro is improving traffic flow and enhancing safety on the I-105 by converting the existing High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lanes into two ExpressLanes in each direction. Segment 1 of the project—between Sepulveda Bl and Central Av—is currently under construction and anticipated to continue for approximately three years.

As part of this effort, crews are demolishing and rebuilding sound walls and performing roadway construction along eastbound I-105 between Avalon Bl and Stanford Av. Sound wall reconstruction is necessary to accommodate new pavement and infrastructure for the ExpressLanes.
