Caltrans closes number two lane of northbound Highway 101 near Olive Mill Rd through Thursday
SANTA BARBARA, Calif. – Caltrans alerted the public that the number two lane of northbound Highway 101 near Olive Mill Road will remain closed through Thursday to repair the pavement in more dry conditions.
Wednesday's heavy rain storm prevented asphalt from being adhered to the roadway.
The No. 2 northbound lane of #US101 at the Olive Mill Road Overcrossing will remain closed until the current storm system passes. The heavy rain will not allow for placement of a secure patch of asphalt. Further attempts will occur this evening when the storm passes.@CaltransHQ https://t.co/EdLVvdWo9T pic.twitter.com/Ug37W2jROU
