The construction project at the Valley View/Alondra intersection in La Mirada (see story below), has reached a point where lane closures are now a factor. Valley View and Alondra are now reduced to one lane, creating huge backups especially at rush hour. "There is no way around it", says City Project Coordinator Gary Sanui, referring to the lane closures, with no pun intended. Motorists are urged to seek alternate routes to avoid delays. Stage Road has been a popular alternative, so watch for increased traffic.
