Two closure are planned for the week of October 12 as part of the 57/Lambert Interchange Improvement project. The 57/Lambert Interchange Improvement project is a multi-year, large-scale construction project. Once completed, the improvements will provide additional capacity, better traffic flow, enhanced safety, and reduced congestion and delays. Caltrans is the lead agency for this project and is responsible for all aspects of construction management. For more information on this project, visit www.cityofbrea.net/57Lambert.
