Slippery roads and the potential for falling rocks and debris can make driving mountain roads hazardous during winter storms. Malibu Canyon Road will remain closed through
5 p.m. on Monday, January 27 or until the road is declared safe for the traveling public.
Motorists are advised to avoid burn areas and mountain roads during storms, if possible.
Remember to:
- Slow down.
- Allow for larger following and stopping distances while driving.
- Take turns slowly
- Accelerate and stop gradually
- Avoid driving into ponded or swift-moving water.
