Councilmember Tim McOsker asks city crews to fix flooding on a truck route being used as a detour during the Vincent Thomas Bridge closure.

City Council· posted Oct 13Motion

The motion would direct the Bureau of Sanitation, LADOT and the Bureau of Engineering to make emergency repairs and add flood mitigation at Harry Bridges Boulevard and Alameda Street in Wilmington. It also asks LADOT to manage truck routing and signage so detour traffic from the Vincent Thomas Bridge closure does not move into Wilmington neighborhoods.
