CHP incident feed lists Route 18 as closed

The California Highway Patrol's statewide incident feed shows Route 18 closed, with no location, cause or reopening time listed.

By Big Bear News1 min read1 source

The California Highway Patrol's statewide incident feed lists Route 18 as closed, but the entry gives no location, no cause and no estimate for when the road will reopen. The feed's entire listing reads: "Route 18: closed."

State Route 18 is one of the main routes into and out of Big Bear Valley. The feed does not say which stretch of the highway is affected or whether a detour is in place, so anyone planning to drive it should check conditions before leaving.

Big Bear News has not seen any statement from the CHP or Caltrans confirming where the closure is or what caused it. It should not be assumed that the entry is connected to any previously announced roadwork.

Details such as a location or reopening time would have to come from the CHP or Caltrans.
