Construction on Venice and Sawtelle May Cause Delays

The Los Angeles Department of Public Works is upgrading a water line.

Work to complete construction of a major water supply upgrade will disrupt traffic on Venice and Sawtellle boulevards from Wednesday until the end of February.

The left turn lanes on eastbound Venice Boulevard and one westbound lane will be temporarily closed. And construction will also shut down the southbound lane on Sawtelle Boulevard.

Work will be conducted from 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Monday to Friday.
