A pave and grind operation in various locations along a six-mile section of Highway 135 from north of Los Alamos to Harris Grade Road is scheduled from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. next Wednesday through Friday.

Motorists will encounter one-way reversing traffic control with a pilot car. Motorists should expect delays of up to 15 minutes.

In addition, the southbound Highway 101 on-ramp at Santa Claus Lane and the southbound Highway 101 off-ramp at Carpinteria Avenue will be closed from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday. These ramp closures will allow Caltrans maintenance crews to repair asphalt at these two locations. There will not be two consecutive ramps closed during this project.

Caltrans reminds motorists to move over and slow down when driving through Caltrans construction zones.

Noozhawk Asks: What’s Your Question?

Welcome to Noozhawk Asks, a new feature in which you ask the questions, you help decide what Noozhawk investigates, and you work with us to find the answers.

Here’s how it works: You share your questions with us in the nearby box. In some cases, we may work with you to find the answers. In others, we may ask you to vote on your top choices to help us narrow the scope. And we’ll be regularly asking you for your feedback on a specific issue or topic.

We also expect to work together with the reader who asked the winning questions to find the answer together. Noozhawk’s objective is to come at questions from a place of curiosity and openness, and we believe a transparent collaboration is the key to achieve it.

The results of our investigation will be published here in this Noozhawk Asks section. Once or twice a month, we plan to do a review of what was asked and answered.

Thanks for asking!
