Temple Avenue Closes For Mt. SAC Construction This Weekend

WALNUT, CA — A portion of Temple Avenue will be closed for several hours during the weekend as Mt. San Antonio College continues construction of its 900-foot pedestrian bridge.

The closure will last from 6 p.m. on Friday to 6 a.m. on Saturday, school officials said. Temple Avenue between Grand and Bonita avenues will be closed in both directions.

Mountaineer Road to Edinger Way to Bonita Avenue on the north side of campus will be open as an alternative route, the college said.

Once completed, the pedestrian bridge will allow students, staff members, and residents to travel between both halves of the college without needing to wait at a traffic light, officials said.

For more information about the closure, contact Gary Gidcumb, the college’s senior manager of construction projects, at 909-762-6071.
