Caltrans to conduct emergency guardrail repairs on NB I5 near California Aqueduct
According to Caltrans officials, crews are scheduled to block two lanes of northbound Interstate 5 for the repairs. This may impact traffic.
The repair work is scheduled to last several hours, according to Caltrans.
Officials with the highway patrol told 17 News the repairs are due to an overnight crash when a F250 truck with a car hauler struck the guardrail.
No one was injured in the crash.
