The California Department of Transportation will close two lanes on eastbound Pacific Coast Highway between Big Rock Drive and Pena Canyon Bridge from 10 p.m. until tomorrow at 5 a.m. Eastbound traffic will use one lane in the center divider; westbound traffic will not be affected, according to Calrtans.
The purpose of the closure, according to a Caltrans press release, is to allow final paving of the reconstructed roadway that was damaged in early December when a water main broke, creating a large sinkhole.
