Palmdale , Ca- The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) has scheduled lane closures on the northbound and southbound Antelope Valley Freeway (SR-14) between Technology Drive in Palmdale and Avenue A in Lancaster, closing up to three lanes.

The closures are necessary to perform pavement replacement, inside shoulder work, and set K-rail that will extend the life of the existing lanes by a minimum of 40 years and improve ride quality. Currently, construction work is ongoing Monday through Thursday, 9 p.m. to 6 a.m., and Friday through Saturday, 10 p.m. to 7 a.m., to minimize traffic impacts. The northbound side of SR-14 has two lanes open in both directions (2 lanes northbound and 2 lanes southbound) for the crossover from Avenue H to Avenue A.
