The Department of Transportation (Caltrans) is scheduled to begin emergency repairs to the slope drape and rock fence on SR-18 located 0.7 miles east of the SR-18/SR-138 separation near Crestline.
The $600,000 Director’s Order emergency contract has been awarded to Powell Constructors, Inc. of Fontana, who will begin work on Monday, February 27.

A complete closure of SR-18 between — Crest Forest Drive and the SR-138 cut-off — will occur for up to five days, for safety purposes, from Thursday, March 2 to Thursday, March 9. Detours will be posted at that time.
