Due to power line work, southbound Sepulveda Boulevard will be closed nightly near the Getty ramps for about two weeks, according to the Metropolitan Transportation Authority.

• Nighttime closures are from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m.
• Daytime work may continue from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., with one lane of Sepulveda maintained in each direction.
• LADWP work will be completed in approximately two weeks.

Detour information is as follows:

• Southbound traffic on Sepulveda will be detoured to the southbound 405 Getty on-ramp.
• Motorists may turn right from the southbound Getty off-ramp to Sepulveda.
• Left turns from the southbound Getty off-ramp to Sepulveda will be restricted.
