Work crews are scheduled to begin road construction next week along portions of McBean Parkway at Newhall Ranch Road.

The construction project includes median modifications, paving, grinding, and overlay operations along portions of McBean Parkway at Newhall Ranch Road in Valencia, according to the City of Santa Clarita.

The modification is intended to add a left turn lane on northbound McBean Parkway, enhancing traffic circulation, according to Santa Clarita officials. 

The following closures are scheduled to be in place from 8:30 p.m. to 4:30 a.m. on weeknights during construction starting Wednesday, November 13, from 8:30 p.m. until 4:30 a.m. 

However, travelers can expect weekend road closures from 8:30 p.m. Friday, November 15, through 4:30 a.m. Monday, November 18, according to City officials. 

The closures are then to restart during the weeknights until the anticipated end date on November 22. 

Closures include:

• One southbound through lane on McBean Parkway at Newhall Ranch Road.
• One left turn lane on northbound McBean Parkway at Newhall Ranch Road.
• One left turn lane on westbound Newhall Ranch Road at McBean Parkway.

Drivers are asked to be aware of scheduled lane closures and plan their routes accordingly. Traffic signs are to be posted to inform motorists of upcoming lane closures. Residents are asked to reduce their speed through the construction zones, according to Santa Clarita officials.

Weather conditions may lead to changes or rescheduling of construction. For the latest updates on the project, check the City’s social media pages
