Work Suspended on the 91 Express Lanes during Thanksgiving Weekend

Those who rely on the 91 Express Lanes have another reason to be thankful on Thanksgiving. In honor of the holiday, no repavement work will be performed. Barring unforeseen weather or operational delays, major paving is now on track to be completed by Monday, December 5, 2016.

Since September, crews have been repaving the 91 Express Lanes most weekends from about the 55 freeway in Anaheim to the Orange County/Riverside County line. Production goals have been exceeded every weekend and the express lanes have re-opened for the morning rush 100 percent of the time. To find out more about the project, click here.

OCTA thanks 91 Express Lanes customers and general public for driving safely during the project. The motoring public’s continued cooperation has kept crews and commuters safe during fast-paced, around-the-clock weekend construction efforts.

Happy Thanksgiving from OCTA, Caltrans District 12 and the entire Weekend Shift Project Team! We remind you to drive safely and slow for the cone zone.
