Some freeway ramps and lanes on Interstate 15 near Kearny Mesa will be closed Sunday if weather allows, to make way for construction crews to grind and replace pavement.
The California Department of Transportation planned to close one to two southbound lanes of the I-15 from Balboa Avenue to Aero Drive, starting at 5 p.m. Sunday night. The ramps that go to and from southbound I-15 at Balboa Avenue will be closed as well.
The ramp from Murphy Canyon Road to the south I-15 will be closed at 8 p.m. Sunday night, while the south on-ramp at Aero Drive will be closed at 2 a.m. Monday.
All of the work is supposed to be finished by 5 a.m. Monday, but this may not happen if it rains, Caltrans officials said.
“The work will be noisy at times, especially during the grinding operations,” a Caltrans statement said. “Motorists are reminded to slow down when driving near the construction and to move over a lane to provide a buffer for workers when it is safe to do so.”
