Commuters traveling from the Inland Empire to the High Desert this week should be aware of significant nighttime lane closures on northbound I-15 between Fontana and Ontario. These closures, scheduled from 9:00 PM to 5:59 AM, may affect evening and early morning travel times.

The closures encompass various segments of I-15, including off-ramps and on-ramps at locations such as Jurupa Avenue, Fourth Street, and the Route 66/Foothill Boulevard interchange. Additionally, full closures of the northbound I-15 connector between Route 15 and Route 10 are planned during the same overnight hours. These closures are part of ongoing highway construction and maintenance efforts aimed at improving traffic flow and safety.

For High Desert commuters, these closures may lead to increased congestion and potential delays when traveling southbound on I-15 during the late evening and early morning hours. It’s advisable to plan ahead, consider alternative routes, and allow extra travel time to accommodate possible detours and slower traffic.

Real-time updates and detailed information on these closures can be accessed through Caltrans QuickMap or the Caltrans District 8 Facebook page. Staying informed will help ensure a smoother and more predictable commute.
