Drivers should plan ahead to avoid traffic delays.
[view:node_ad=5]The City of Santa Clarita has announced that Golden Valley Bridge, which travels over Soledad Canyon Road, will be closed for the entire week of March 10th through March 16th.

A large film project will be taking place on the bridge, which is why traffic has to be diverted. The exact portion closed will be Golden Valley Road between McKeon Way and Valley Center Dr.

Large road signs have been warning motorists of the planned closure since March 3rd.

Filming has become a major economic vein in Santa Clarita, although the writers strike which dealt the local industry a major blow. According to the City, only half of the film projects have come back after the writers strike was lifted.

So while the Golden Valley bridge closure may be a slight inconvenience, the City is hoping it will serve as a big “welcome back” sign to the film industry here in Santa Clarita.
