As if the Carmageddon closure of Interstate 405 from July 15-17 weren't enough, the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) announces these lane closures on Interstate 5 and the Ventura Freeway. The closure began July 1 and will continue through July 8. The closures are part of the High Occupancy Vehicle Lane Improvement Project.
