If you’re going to Idyllwild this weekend, Caltrans has extended its escort schedule along Highway 74 for the Fourth of July weekend. Escorts will take place from 4 a.m. to midnight through Sunday. The escorts will return to the regular schedule on Monday, July 8, from 4 a.m. to 8 a.m., and 6 p.m. to midnight, Mondays through Fridays. The extended hours for weekend escorts will continue on Saturdays and Sundays through Labor Day. Highway 74 has been closed between Hemet and Mountain Center since a Valentine’s Day storm washed out several sections of the highway.
