Construction delays on EB and WB Century Blvd. have caused increased traffic congestion near LAX," airport officials posted Sunday on X at 12:47 p.m. "LA Airport Police, LADOT and flaggers are onsite to aid with airport access.

Traffic was so bad on Sunday that some people decided to get out of their cars and just walk to the terminals. Some flights were even impacted because some crew members couldn't make it on time.
On Friday, officials said that to facilitate work for the airport's Automated People Mover, a temporary overnight closure of Century Boulevard's eastbound lanes between Sepulveda and Airport Boulevards and westbound lanes between Airport Boulevard and Vicksburg Avenue would be implemented until 7 a.m. Sunday. However, they added that dates and times were subject to change.
