Dodger Stadium area, 5 Freeway soundbound number three lane 1 mile before or after the Stadium Way exit.

Caltrans cut a square out of the freeway and the patch material settled lower than the road surface. There is a HUGE lip, (maybe 1 or 2 inches ) in my car it made my suspension bottom out and hit the bump stops. I thought I was gonna pop my front tires or bend my rims it was that bad at 65 mph.

Please look out, and if anybody has the URL for reporting this to Caltrans I'd appreciate it.

Nice.... Thanks for the heads up.

That's the problem with caltran's policy of only working at night. It's good that there are no construction zones during the day but the road surface can change overnight. Some of the quick concrete they use is pretty good, but asphalt patches are bs.
