The southbound 5 Freeway connector to the southbound Harbor Freeway was closed due to mud and debris.
Two right lanes were blocked on the northbound Golden State Freeway near Templin Highway in northern Los Angeles County by a 250-foot-long mudslide. “As the weather continues to fill up waterways, we strongly urge everyone to stay away from the water,” he said. In West Hills, a tree toppled at 8:13 p.m. Saturday in the 23300 block of Mulholland Drive, crushing multiple cars in a parking lot.
The additional rain is bad news for crews still working to clean up after last week’s storms. A sinkhole that developed on a Calabasas roadway and swallowed two vehicles continued growing in size. The sinkhole on Iverson Road was estimated Friday to have grown to about 45 feet deep while spanning the entire roadway. The Los Angeles City Council on Tuesday approved $500,000 in emergency funding on Tuesday to expedite repairs of the sinkhole.
