Sepulveda Basin closed due to storm
Heavy rain in Southern California has forced officials to close the Sepulveda Basin due to flooding concerns.
LOS ANGELES - Heads up, commuters!
A sinkhole has shut down the northbound 405 Freeway off-ramp at Skirball Center and Mulholland Drive until further notice, Caltrans District 7 announced.
Drivers are advised to find alternate routes. The closure is expected to last up to a month while crews make repairs.
Signs are posted advising drivers to exit at Circle Drive.
