3.6-mile stretch of Topanga Canyon Boulevard to close because of possible mudslides

Caltrans will fully close a 3.6-mile stretch of Topanga Canyon Boulevard between Pacific Coast Highway and Grand View Drive in the unincorporated Topanga area at midnight Saturday in anticipation of possible mud and debris flows from the continuing rain, and the additional rain in the forecast.

The agency cites “saturated conditions” and says crews “will monitor and reassess road conditions daily as long as it is safe to do so.”
