A stretch of Avenue 19 in Lincoln Heights will be temporarily closed during the day through May 29 for emergency sewer repair.
Northbound Avenue 19 will be closed between 7 a.m. and 3 p.m. daily between Humboldt Street and North San Fernando Road, according to Tonya Durrell, public information director for Los Angeles Sanitation and Environment.
Traffic will be detoured onto Humboldt Street and North San Fernando Road while crews conduct curb and gutter repair and pavement and striping work.
The sewer is “urgently in need of repair due to age and deterioration,” according to Durrell.
