What Will Be Closed:
- 405 SOUTH will close between the 101 and Getty Center Drive.
When will it be closed:
- The freeway is planned to re-open5am Monday.
For all you Los Angeles folks, this might be some worthy advice if you didn't know already- The 405 Freeway will be closed for about 10 miles while crews demolish the Mulholland Drive Bridge. Exciting!! Well, not really for all of those on the L.A freeways this weekend. The closure is expected to cause massive traffic jams and congestion even though several warnings like ours is in place. BUT- This could be a good summer Saturday and Sunday for Magic Mountain in terms of crowds! Since the majority of people are urged to stay off the roads (or at least the westside roads) , this could eliminate a significant amount of visitors at the park; L.A Folk at least. The traffic might very well affect the park's employees from the Los Angeles area heading to work as well. Many organizations are advising people to use the alternate routes if they must head over to the ''Carmageddon'' zone (see here). Where the average 500,000 cars will go and stretch no one knows for sure, but this will be an interesting weekend to see how Magic Mountain's attendance is impacted.. If anyone DOES visit, let us know how it goes. What Will Be Closed:- 405 NORTH will close between the 10 and 101 - 405 SOUTH will close between the 101 and Getty Center Drive. When will it be closed:- The 405 will close at 7pm on Friday. - The freeway is planned to re-open5am Monday. Where Are the alternate routes:

Uhm, I hope you know the 5 will have traffic. Since the 405 is closed everyone will be on the 5. 7/15/2011 03:26:30 pm
@Mike - It might be congested with cars, but the real question is if it'll keep people off the roads going to the park...
