The California Department of Transportation (CalTrans) announced full closures of Topanga Canyon Blvd. (SR-27) between Pacific Coast Highway (SR-1) and Grand View Dr. Near Jalan Jalan, Imports for an emergency project to repair and restore eroded slope embankments on TCB.

The full nightly closures will take place between 10:00pm - 5:00am from Monday, May 13 to Thursday, May 16

This year, the hillsides along Topanga Canyon Blvd. had multiple rock and debris slides onto the highway, triggering full closures of TCB for days.

Signs will advise motorists to use US-101, Las Virgenes Road, and Malibu Canyon Road as an alternate route. Motorists should expect delays and are strongly advised to use alternate routes or avoid the area. The town of Topanga will remain open to motorists.

Drivers can check traffic conditions before they leave by visiting the Caltrans Quickmap.

Urgent CalTrans Alert! CALTRANS SCENIC HIGHWAY SLOPE REPAIR CLOSURES
Mike Dipsia, Caltrans' Man-In-The-Canyon, has verified Topanga Canyon Boulevard will be closed from Jalan Jalan Imports to Pacific Coast Highway from 10:00pm Monday April 15 to Friday April 19 at 5:00am. In the addition, the same section of Topanga Canyon Boulevard will be closed from Monday April 22nd at 10:00pm to Friday April 26 at 5:00am and Monday April 29th at 10:00pm to Friday May 3rd at 5:00am. Signs will be posted throughout Canyon byways notifying commuters of the closures and that Topanga Town Is Open! There will also be signs discouraging motorists from traveling up Fernwood Pacific and using Tuna Canyon in order to reach Pacific Coast Highway.
ADDITIONAL CALTRANS ROAD WORK!
On top of the previously mentioned ongoing emergency work, Mr. Dipsia, the aforementioned Caltrans Man-In-The-Canyon, tells us Caltrans will be "Pot Holing" -- digging pot-sized holes -- in order to locate gas lines in preparation for the future installation of Bio-Swale water filtering systems in various locations along Topanga Canyon Boulevard. This "pot holing" work will be done fromTuesday April 16 through Friday April 26 from 9:00am to 3:00pm daily. Most of this work will be done on the shoulder of TCB and should not affect traffic flow. In some circumstances one lane of Topanga Canyon Boulevard may be closed temporarily and traffic flow directed through alternating lanes.
Yes, the plethora of flashing signs giving out different messages is confusing. The Topanga Chamber of Commerce is urging Caltrans to make the signs as clear and uncontradictory as possible. They are asking CalTrans to make the messages clear, concise and correct. �
Mike Dipsia thanks the Topanga Community for your understanding and cooperation. Your volunteer community organizations are working hard to make this often times frustrating and confusing process as painless as possible.
