Carmageddon!!
What is the Carmageddon?
The 405 freeway in L.A. is going to be completely closed beginning at midnight on July 15th and ending at 5a.m. July 18.(Ramps will close by 7p.m. and lanes will start shutting down at 10p.m.)
Why are they doing this?!?
They want to demolish a bridge to widen a freeway.
