BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KGET) — Parts of Stockdale Highway are scheduled to be closed on Nov. 11 and 12 due to pavement rehabilitation projects.
According to city officials, on Saturday, Nov. 11 lanes of Stockdale Highway between Stine and Gosford roads will be closed throughout the day.
The closure is due to crews placing rubberized, hot asphalt in the area.

The intersection of Stockdale Highway and Gosford Road is scheduled to be closed from 6 a.m. to 9 a.m.
After the intersection closure, traffic will be limited in the area, according to city officials.
