La Jolla Parkway I-5 off-ramp closing for three nights to finish new concrete barrier

California Department of Transportation crews will close the northbound Interstate 5 off-ramp to La Jolla Parkway from 9 p.m. to 5 a.m. Sunday, July 30, through Tuesday, Aug. 1, to finish construction of a new concrete barrier that has replaced the guardrail on the approach to the bridge.

This final step will install a Smart Crash cushion, remove the temporary construction barriers and restripe the ramp, according to Caltrans.

Motorists looking to get on La Jolla Parkway can continue north on I-5, exit at La Jolla Village Drive, turn left onto La Jolla Scenic Drive and then turn right onto La Jolla Parkway.

The work schedule is subject to change due to weather, traffic incidents or other considerations.
