I’m guessing that Westsiders who live in the area are already keenly aware that partial demolition work on the bridge that carries Sunset Boulevard over the 405 freeway begins later this evening. The work is being done as part of the project to add a northbound carpool lane on the 405 over the Sepulveda Pass.

There will also be associated closures of the 405 freeway early Saturday morning and work is also being done on Sepulveda Boulevard.

Here’s a press release outlining the work to be done. And here’s a link to the project website.
