The construction site is at Temple Avenue, which is between Cherry Avenue and Lakewood Boulevard, Caltrans officials said. That’s adjacent to Long Beach Airport.

Lanes will begin closing on the 405 starting at 8 p.m. Monday through Thursday nights, with full closures in both directions in effect by midnight.

Northbound lanes should reopen Tuesday through Friday mornings at 4 a.m., with southbound lanes coming back up at 5 a.m.

Part of a damaged overpass is to be demolished and replaced, in a $2.5 million repair.
