Arnold, Ca — Caltrans will be closing Ebbetts Pass at 5pm today due to the anticipated storms over the weekend.
Spokesperson Lisa Balcom says that the decision was made for the safety of motorists and Caltrans crews. She reminds residents that winter weather and road conditions can change rapidly, so motorists should be prepared for the worst conditions.
All vehicles, including those with four-wheel drive or snow tires, should carry chains when traveling during snowy weather.
