Northbound lanes of Texas Street in San Diego will be closed between Adams Avenue and Camino del Rio South beginning Friday at 8 p.m. For emergency repairs to a stormwater channel and embankment stabilization, the city announced Thursday.
The closure is scheduled to remain in effect until Saturday at 10 a.m., according to a city statement. The repairs are being prioritized due to a forecast of wet weather next week, officials said.
Crews will be working to reinforce the embankment and prevent further erosion, the city stated. Northbound traffic will be diverted to the Interstate 805 northbound on-ramp via nearby side streets. Drivers are advised to allow extra travel time and, if possible, avoid the area overnight.
