Delays Going To Hit Travelers On South Coast Highway

Travelers on a South Coast highway are going to encounter delays for the next few months.

Traffic is only being allowed to flow one direction at a time on some sections of Highway 150 between Ojai and Santa Paula. Crews are building barriers along two sections of the highway between Steckel Park and Thomas Aquinas College to try to stabilize the adjacent slopes.

Temporary stop lights have been installed on the two sections of the road where the work is occurring, to safely allow one-way traffic to move through the single lane which remains open. The signals are controlling traffic around the clock.
