It takes 6 months if that to build a house and this has been sinking did one year and u are now fixing it!!
Correct. It’s not a house or a car. It costs a few thousand to build a car, a few hundred thousand to build a house. This job costs a couple of million. And it doesn’t take the state Legislature and the governor to approve the funding for you to build your house.
It should NOT cost $2.1 million to replace a section of drainage pipe, fill and compact soil and repave a 75 foot section of road. They have NOT been on site for nearly 3 months. NO ONE has been seen there working since they blocked the off-ramp on April 21. They are going to wait to November to complete this when it should have been completed in 2-3 weeks. LADWP replaced a section of water main 15′ underground, replaced the dirt (in a hole the same size), and resurfaced in 4 days!
How long is the closure?
So, it’s been 6 weeks and no progress…no sign of work being done. Just a 2 million dollar inconvenience. I’m so sick of California BS…and yes, I don’t like it, so I am leaving. Y
What is white and orange and sleeps six?
A Caltrans truck
I live in the area, and see no sign of work whatsoever!… getting off Balboa or Tampa takes a long time. I hope you start this project soon!! Come fall it will a lot worse than it is now.
I support the above comments. I use this offramp and it’s frustrating seeing no work being done. I understand the need for infrastructure upgrades and maintenance, but this ain’t it. This is currently the “work” of bureaucrats who don’t give a poop about commuters. Let’s see some progress this summer, because come Fall when CSUN classes start again traffic at the Balboa and Tampa exits will be very ugly.
When can we expect it to open back up?
Can we get an update on this project? Like others have stated, no sign of work being done. For people who use this off ramp everyday, using the Balboa or Tampa off ramp is very frustrating. When will this work start and be completed.
And still No work has been done! Why the heck did they close the off-ramp in April. Once again CALtrans has no idea what they are doing.
This is uncalled for, no work has been started, and Caltrans doesn’t give a hoot about the people using this off-ramp. Someone needs to be fired.
It’s been 6 months and no progress has been made. Got to love caltrans workers. $2.1 million to inconvenience the public for months while they don’t get anything done.
Usually any construction work by city or Caltrans it is start end of the year just at the end of November and The month off December they will start working probably, we are sick of tired off it.
This sink hole has been there well before April. By April they already had the $2.1M from the state. 2 weeks to dig out the old pipe and replace it. Another 2 weeks to install rebar as necessary, 1 week to pour concrete and 1 week to let it cure. So far, I have only seen workers out there on 1 day. Your tax dollars at work.
So another web site with a schedule as to when it would be done said “End of 2022” Well here we are almost a full month into 2023, and every time I go by there is no one working on the project. I get it has been raining the past couple of weeks, but since this project began, I saw maybe 2 days of actual work being done.
Use Tampa Ave or Balboa Blvd. Well Concert forntwo days at Northridge Univ has a new Performing Arts Convention Center. I was told arrive one hour ahead for will call. Well I think two joursis better esp with the wind and rain asbiaoeiea. This closure adds 40 more mins to your plan. Be rested so no one gets road rage yikes. . Yuen Su
We don’t want summer salts at the alternate off ramps. Drove slow so the water splash don’t cause you to loose control. It takes only one foot of water to hydroplane. Plus have a set of.new torws and wiper blades. Be safe ams enjoy the ciainf Chinese Entourage. Amen
