Caltrans installs gates on 101 Freeway ramps ahead of 'No Kings' protest
KTLACaltrans crews installed onramp and offramp gates on the 101 Freeway at Los Angeles Street in downtown L.A. ahead of this weekend’s “No Kings” protest.
The CHP said keeping demonstrators off the freeway is a safety issue for both marchers and motorists. Officials emphasized that the gates will only be used as needed, with officers coordinating with Caltrans before any freeway ramps are closed.
Dozens of “No Kings’ rallies are scheduled for Saturday across Los Angeles County, including Long Beach, Burbank, Alhambra and downtown L.A.

This seems to be the only onramp or offramp gated. Note also how easy to slide under but no cars.
