Plan Ahead: Ramp, Lane Closures Planned on I-8 in El Cajon Starting Sunday 

Caltrans construction crews will close the Main Street on-ramp to westbound Interstate 8 (I-8) Sunday through Thursday from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m. in El Cajon.

Two right lanes on westbound I-8 from Marshall Avenue to Grossmont Boulevard will also close from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m. for asphalt repair. There will be no full freeway closure.

Residents in the area may hear truck and beeping from construction vehicles. The Occupational Safety & Health Administration established standards for the use of backup alarms on construction vehicles and material handling equipment because of the widespread danger posed to people on the site.
