Work on the $92-million bridge, which will be done at night over a month or more, will yield the largest wildlife crossing in the world.
Starting in mid-April, 101 Freeway lanes will be closed overnight to enable construction work on the Wallis Annenberg Wildlife Crossing in Agoura Hills. Caltrans will close all lanes in one direction of the freeway between Liberty Canyon Road and Chesebro Road while the work is being performed, according to a city news release. The lanes will be closed for five hours on weeknights, starting at 11:59 p.m.
The work is scheduled to start April 16, but that's subject to change, the city said. A detour will be available via Agoura Road, Liberty Canyon Road and Chesebro/Palo Comado Canyon Road, officials said. Drivers can also use State Route 126 to avoid the area. Crews will install girders over the freeway to support the crossing, a vegetated bridge that will reconnect wildlife habitat, officials said.
