Check on Current Closures in Riverside County Here

The following is a news release from the Riverside County Transportation Department:

Commuters and other drivers who need to know which county roads are closed because of recent storms can go to the Transportation Department website for the most recent information available about road closures. The page, http://rctlma.org/trans/Road-Maintenance/Road-Closures, lists the names of the roads, the portions that are closed and the closure dates. The list only covers roads in the unincorporated county, not city streets.

Riverside County will continue to update the list with new information and will advise the media and public, when possible, with estimates about when closed roads will reopen. The following is a list of closed roads and the anticipated reopening times (which could change, depending on conditions), and roads that recently reopened:
