Westbound lanes were closed at 10 p.m. Friday between Lake Avenue and Mountain Street.
The eastbound ramp from the 134 Freeway to the westbound Foothill Freeway also was closed, along with the westbound Foothill Freeway off-ramps at Marengo Avenue and Mountain Street, and the Walnut Street on-ramp.
The closures will be repeated the weekend of July 29-Aug. 1.
