Barham Off Ramp to be Closed PERMANENTLY!

Part of the Universal expansion project requires that the traffic from Universal shall drop down onto the 101 Freeway. For this to happen, the existing Barham offramp from the 101 will have to be closed permanently. As far as we know, the onramp from Cahuenga north of Barham taking cars southbound onto 101 Freeway will remain in place.

There is a petition going around from people who do not like this idea. Feel free to read it and, if you agree with their point of view, SIGN THE PETITION
