Construction Activities

Lane Channel

Contractors are installing temporary shoring, removing vegetation along the east side of the channel, and demolishing the channel from north to south before reconstructing the channel. This work will occur intermittently through 2025, typically from May to October during the dry season.

Retaining Walls

Contractors are working on about a half-dozen retaining walls with several more planned to start in the coming months. This work includes excavating, building forms, installing rebar, and pouring concrete.

Please be advised that this work may be loud. Dates and times are subject to change due to unforeseen operational factors or inclement weather.

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.
