Glendora Mountain Roads Closed Due to Fire Danger

High fire danger is cited as the reasoning behind closing both the Glendora Mountain Road and Glendora Ridge Roads through Monday to cars.

GLENDORA, CA—While the Cajon Pass is burning, Glendora is concentrating on fire concerns and reducing traffic to remote areas.

Because of concerns about fire danger, Glendora Mountain Road and Glendora Ridge Road were closed today to motor vehicles.

However, bicyclists and pedestrians are being allowed on the roadways, according to the sheriff's department.
