Part Of Interstate 215 Will Be Closed Friday Night

MURRIETA (CBS) — Part of Interstate 215 will be closed Friday night while crews work on an overpass.

The southbound side of the freeway will be closed at Clinton Keith Road from 10 p.m. Friday to 5 a.m. Saturday as crews prepare to erect median columns for a new interchange, according to Caltrans.

Motorists will be detoured off the freeway and immediately routed back on at Linnel Lane.

The fast lane on the northbound side of the freeway will also be shut down.

The $12.6 million interchange replacement project is expected to be completed in the next few months.
