State Highway On South Coast To Get Stoplight To Accomodate Construction Project

Motorists who normally use a South Coast highway are soon going to find an unexpected stop in the middle of it. Caltrans says some temporary stoplights are being installed on Highway 150 between Santa Paula and Ojai, to help with a construction project.

A section of the highway’s culvert is being replaced near Dennison Park. To accommodate the work, a segment of Highway 150 will be one lane only on an alternating basis.

Plans call for the stoplights to go into operation the middle of next week, and to remain in place through September. Motorists should expect some delays in the area.
