Retaining Wall Concrete Pour

As crews continue to make steady progress backfilling and constructing the new retaining wall along the southbound MacArthur Boulevard on-ramp, an overnight concrete pour is planned on Wednesday, Sept. 11 as early as midnight to 5 a.m.


This work will require closing the southbound MacArthur Boulevard straight and loop on-ramps, as well as one outside lane on southbound SR-55 at MacArthur. Click here to view the detour map. 


Thank you to the neighboring businesses and communities for your patience while crews construct the wall.

About the Project

OCTA, in cooperation with Caltrans, is improving 4 miles of SR-55 between I-405 and I-5. The project will improve traffic flow and reduce travel time by adding one regular lane and one carpool lane in each direction. Also, the project will add merge lanes between several interchanges and stripe carpool lanes for continuous access, augmenting safety on the freeway by making merging easier. These enhancements are expected to create a better, smoother driving experience for motorists.
