Southbound auxiliary lane
By Nathaniel Fowler, Health & Safety Specialist, Caltrans
Caltrans has scheduled a 60-hour weekend closure of the southbound State Route 160 (SR-160) auxiliary lane between Wilbur Avenue and East 18th Street/Main Street. The closure will begin Friday, Oct. 10, 2025, at 5:00 PM and remain in effect until Monday, Oct. 13 at 5:00 AM.
Please be advised that Wilbur Avenue On-Ramp to southbound SR-160 and E. 18th Street Off-Ramp on southbound SR-160 will remain closed throughout the closure. This extended closure is required to safely and efficiently complete construction activities in the area.
Detour signs will be posted, and Changeable Message Signs (CMS) will alert drivers of the closure. Drivers should expect delays, allow extra travel time and exercise caution while navigating the detours. All work is weather permitted. Caltrans appreciates the public’s patience and cooperation while crews perform this critical work.

Is it closed or partially open?
Beatrce,
As the announcement shows the southbound auxiliary lane will be closed as will the southbound on-ramp at Wilbur Avenue and the southbound off-ramp at E. 18th Street. Not all the southbound lanes will be closed.
