Ventura Freeway Closures

The northbound Ventura Freeway from Vineyard Avenue in Oxnard to Victoria Avenue in Ventura will close from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. starting Wednesday, April 11 through Friday, April 13.

Southbound lanes will close from Vineyard Avenue to Victoria Avenue nightly from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. Thursday evening, April 12 until Friday morning, April 13 and Sunday evening, April 15 until Tuesday morning, April 17.

The freeway closure -- for overhead sign erection and electrical work -- are part of a $100 million improvement project that began in 2002 on U.S. 101 from Vineyard Avenue in Oxnard to Johnson Drive in Ventura.

The whole project will be done this summer and includes construction of a full diamond interchange at Oxnard Boulevard, the addition of north and south lanes to U.S. 101 and a new bridge over the Santa Clara River.
