Penrith roadworks and closures to be aware of

AN interactive map is helping people in Penrith plan their journeys, to avoid getting stuck in traffic due to roadworks. The map, on the Cumberland Council website, has revealed where Penrith drivers were most likely to get stuck behind roadworks in July. Users can search by town, postcode or address and view planned works up to 12 months in advance. The map can also show incidents, live traffic and diversions. You can also filter what level of roadworks the map shows – from high impact to all works. From Monday to Sunday, 7pm until 6am, the A66 Westbound, from Penrith to Brougham, has lane closures and a layby closure for construction. This is due to be finished at the end of July.

E-ZPass lanes on I-394 close in both directions through November

Both directions of the E-ZPass lanes on I-394 between downtown Minneapolis and Highway 100 closed July 27 until November. During that time, the Minnesota Department of Transportation says its crews will work on repairing bridges and ramps. Drivers WCCO spoke with, are frustrated with another big interstate closure. "It's actually terrible for people to commute, really during rush hour," said Jammah Olben, "I use it a lot. Really when [Highway] 169 is packed I use it as a diversion to get over to I-94. I'll be impacted a lot trying to get home." Usually these major closures happen in the overnight hours when fewer people are on the roads, but not this time. The closure of the E-ZPass lanes in both directions will be enforced at all hours until November. MnDOT says this is part of a larger two-year plan to repair 34 bridges between Interstates 394 and 94. MnDOT also says there will be some overnight lane closures on the same stretch during the next four months. MnDOT currently has 46 road construction projects happening in the Twin Cities metro, including this one. "To get from our house down to St. Paul, I allowed 3.5 hours depending on the time of day," said Jeff Zuckerman jokingly. Zuckerman lives in the Minneapolis neighborhood of Bryn Mawr, off the Penn Avenue exit in the heart of the closure. Drivers will certainly have to pack more patience on the roads until the snow flies again. "You just gotta deal with that, whatever. They're doing it to fix the road for another 5 or 10 years, and they can't do any work in the winter," said Zuckerman. "There's nothing I can do about it. My patience is tested every day. The heat right now is testing my patience," said Olben.

Small rockslide impacts Laurel Canyon Boulevard in Studio City

A small rockslide left debris on Laurel Canyon Boulevard in Studio City on Sunday afternoon. It was reported at around 3 p.m. 100 feet south of Mulholland Drive, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department. It's unknown what caused the slide, but SkyCal flew over the scene where a pile of rocks and vegetation could be seen in the right lane of the road. It was surrounded by yellow tape while drivers had to briefly head into the oncoming lane to avoid the obstacle. Firefighters also said that one person was hospitalized in the incident. They reported that one person had a tree fall and hit their car, which caused the victim to hit their head on the headrest of the vehicle. The victim was hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries, firefighters said. It's unclear how long the debris would remain in the road and if the other earth in the area would need to be secured to prevent future instances.
