Marine Corps Live-Fire Event to Close Coastal Freeway
A large stretch of Interstate 5 near Camp Pendleton will be closed due to a Marine Corps live-fire event.
The closure, which will last from 11:00 am to 3:00 pm, is necessary due to the "extreme life safety risk and distraction to drivers" posed by the event, which includes artillery fire over the freeway.
“Due to an event at Camp Pendleton today, October 18th, Interstate 5 will be closed from Harbor Drive to Basilone Road between 11:00 am and 3:00 pm.”
The event is part of the Marine Corps' 250th birthday celebration, and the closure will be in effect from Harbor Drive in Oceanside to Basilone Road near San Onofre.
This closure comes despite the Marine Corps' initial statement that no freeway closure would be necessary.
