LOS ANGELES, CA – JULY 17: Construction workers remove barricades on the southbound Interstae 405 freeway before it re-opened ahead of schedule following a 10-mile shutdown of the freeway for bridge work on July 17, 2011 in Los Angeles, California. Los Angeles city officials advised residents to stay home or stay away from the area over the weekend fearing massive traffic jams of what has become known as “Carmageddon.” which never materialized.
