#91 freeway express lane detour install#

The lane is designed to help relieve traffic congestion, especially during heavy morning commute hours. See closure details.Ĭonstruction of the new two-mile, non-tolled lane began in November 2020. Expect nighttime lane closures this week to allow crews to restripe the lanes and remove barriers. RCTC is expected to open the new westbound 91 lane later this week for commuters to give it a spin before the full lane closures begin Friday night. If work cannot be performed on January 7, it will be rescheduled for the next possible date. See mapĬonstruction activity may change due to weather or other factors.

If possible, avoid the area or follow the detour route north on the 71, west on the 60, and south on the 57 to access westbound 91 in Orange County. To support the closure, the westbound 91 Express Lanes in Riverside and Orange counties, the westbound Green River Road on-ramp and off-ramp, the southbound 71/westbound 91 connector, and the northbound 15/westbound 91 Express Lanes connector will be closed starting as early as 8 p.m.

Crews will use the closure to safely install an overhead sign across the lanes, one of the last pieces of work on the project. The closure will include all lanes on westbound 91 between the 71 and the 241 Toll Road, Friday night, at 11 p.m. Once the overhead sign is placed, all lanes will reopen, including the new lane built for the 91 Corridor Operations Project. Westbound 91 in Corona will be busy this weekend as RCTC prepares to open a new lane during the day on Friday and close all westbound lanes Friday night to install an overhead sign. The Point: The 91 Corridor Operations Project will require nighttime closure of all westbound 91 lanes Friday night, following “soft opening” later this week.
