Emergency roadwork closes lanes on California’s Highway 101 leading to big traffic back-up

Motorists in Menlo Park are advised to seek alternative routes as emergency roadwork on Highway 101 southbound prompts the closure of the right lane from Willow Road to just past University Ave.

The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) initiated the emergency repairs, necessitating the closure that will be in effect until 3 pm today.

Commuters are encouraged to plan their routes accordingly and consider using El Camino Real or Interstate 280 as viable alternatives to avoid potential delays caused by the ongoing roadwork. The closure is part of Caltrans’ efforts to address urgent infrastructure needs and ensure the safety of travelers on this stretch of Highway 101.
