Plan Extra Time for Your Commute

As you likely know, over the weekend, there was a fire in the Downtown L.A. area that significantly impacted the 10 freeway. A mile-long section of the freeway, between the East L.A. interchange and Alameda Street, will be closed until repairs can be made over the next 3-5 weeks. This is putting pressure on the freeway system around Walt Disney Concert Hall.

Please consider closures and alternate routes when traveling to your concert. 

Freeway and related street closures

• 10 Freeway between the East L.A. interchange and Alameda Street
• 10 Freeway westbound diverted at Santa Fe Avenue.
• 5 Freeway north and south transition to 10 Freeway westbound 60 Freeway transition east and west to 10 Freeway westbound
• Alameda Street closed in the area

The L.A. Department of Transportation has provided some alternative routes to get around the closure including:

Eastbound 10

• Exit the freeway at Alameda Street and 16th Street. To detour back onto the freeway, head northbound on Alameda, eastbound on Olympic Boulevard, and re-enter the 10 East mid-block on the approach to Lemon Street.
• Alternatively, head northbound on Alameda, eastbound on 7th Street, and enter the 5 Freeway. All 10 eastbound freeway on-ramps between the 110 Freeway and Alameda are closed at this time.

Westbound 10

• Reenter the 10 Freeway westbound by traveling west on Washington Boulevard, north on Central Avenue, and west again on 16th Street.
