Crews are expected to perform concrete pours and work on the overhangs at the bridge columns. This work is expected to continue through the end of next week.

Lane Channel

Continuing through late July, contractors are backfilling excavated areas to provide stability to the structure, as well as forming and pouring the walls of the Lane Channel. Shoring activities using a large crane (pictured) to provide support to the channel will also continue.

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.
