SR-125 to close at Mission Gorge Road overnight for repairs

SANTEE (KUSI) — Road crews will close state Route 125 in both directions Tuesday at Mission Gorge Road in Santee for pavement repairs, authorities said.

The closure, at the area where northbound SR-125 ends and the southbound lanes begin, will be in effect from 9 p.m. tonight until 4 a.m. Wednesday, according to Caltrans’ Cathryne Bruce-Johnson. 

"Northbound motorists will be detoured to eastbound or westbound state Route 52," Bruce-Johnson said. "Motorists on Mission Gorge Road will be detoured to Cuyamaca Street, to westbound SR-52 to southbound SR-125."

Caltrans reminded drivers to “be work-zone alert” and slow down when nearing highway work areas.
