Motorists in the East County and Carlsbad areas can expect freeway closures at different points over the next few days.
Caltrans crews were expected to conduct a weekend closure of all lanes of southbound state Route 125 beginning at 9 p.m. Friday until 4 a.m. Monday for concrete slab replacement.
Southbound SR-125 motorists south of state Route 94 will exit using the Jamacha Road off-ramp and reenter the freeway using the on-ramp, a statement from the state Department of Transportation said.
Motorists traveling southbound on SR-125 before SR-94 will be detoured to westbound SR-94 to avoid the closure. Westbound SR-94 traffic can connect to SR-125 via Interstate 805 south
to state Route 54 east to SR-125 north.
On Monday, crews will close all northbound lanes along Interstate 5 between Carlsbad Village Drive and state Route 78 from 11:30 p.m. to 4:30 a.m. Tuesday. The closure will allow crews to continue placing an overhead sign structure that spans all lanes of traffic.
Northbound I-5 motorists will exit at Carlsbad Village Drive and follow the detour onto El Camino Real. Motorists can enter northbound I-5 from Vista Way or SR-78.
