Carmageddon Canyon This Weekend?

A major full closure of the 91 Freeway between the 71 Freeway and Interstate 15 will be conducted this week by the Riverside County Transportation Commission for 55 hours from today at 9 p.m. to Monday at 4 a.m.

The mantra appears to be "Steer Clear," which means that the commission "strongly recommends that morotists plan ahead, avoid travel in the area or stay home."  Otherwise, expected delays of 3 to 4 hours are expected.

Alternative routes are stated as the 57 and 60 freeways and Interstate 10, but there are others, including Carbon Canyon Road.

So, who knows what the situation will be over the weekend, but be prepared for some heavy volume  if drivers decide that Carbon Canyon is a viable alternative.
