Where this comes from

Closures on state routes come from the Caltrans lane closure feed (planned work, emergency work and long-term closures for the next 7 days), and on county roads from LA County Public Works. A closure is shown on a road when it starts or ends on that road. A full closure may cover only part of a road; the stretch is given.

Chain controls come from Caltrans and are shown as they are now. Weather is the National Weather Service forecast halfway along each road, with its alerts; amber marks rain of 30% or more, wind of 20 mph or more, and 40°F or below or 95°F or above.

Other county and city roads are not covered yet, so “nothing listed” is not the same as open. Check Caltrans QuickMap before you leave. Each road’s page has its crash history and riding notes; see the riding roads.
