Los Feliz Traffic Alert!

Major Emergency Road-Work on Los Feliz Boulevard
Crews will begin a major road project at the intersection of Los Feliz Boulevard and Riverside Drive on Monday November 7th to perform emergency roadway stabilization. Tunnelling in the area for the River Supply Conduit Project has resulted in the ground sinking underneath the major intersection around a newly-installed water pipe. Crews will drill hundreds of holes in the pavement and inject grouting to shore-up the ground around the pipe. Work begins on the park-side on Crystal Springs Drive, but will eventually move out onto Los Feliz Boulevard until the sinkage has been mitigated. The work is expected to continue in the area through December 21st.
