Authorities have announced that, due to high winds and increased fire danger, part of Topanga Canyon Boulevard will be completely closed this week.
In a post to X published at 11:24 a.m. Tuesday, CHP’s West Valley Station said that an 11-mile stretch of the canyon roadway – between Mulholland Drive and Pacific Coast Highway – will be shut down starting Wednesday morning at 6 a.m.
The road will remain open to local residents but will be closed to all other traffic, officials said.
It is tentatively scheduled to reopen on Friday at 6 a.m., CHP confirmed. Drivers are advised to seek alternate routes during the closure.
The road closure comes as a Red Flag Warning has been issued for most of Southern California. According to the National Weather Service, wind gusts could peak at 80 miles per hour across portions of L.A. and Ventura counties as humidities in the region fall to the single digits.
