Is there any information on whether the entire 4.5 mile stretch will be closed when the hard closures begin? There is a lot of local traffic through that stretch and it would be helpful if the contractor/Caltrans could provide more details on the closure when they become available.

let the games begin .they better have a night watchmen because every tweeker for miles around will be stealing what ever they can get there hands on ,but whoever that is don’t pull a gun on the cops ,and be sure to tell the cops there will be security,so they won’t shoot you .

So feds are the contractor for the work on 36? Seems odd as its a state hwy? Why didnt the feds just give the money to caltrans to give contractors?
