The portion of Interstate10 in downtown Los Angeles severely damaged by fire over the weekend will undergo repairs after California Dept. of Transportation (Caltrans) engineers determined the elevated highway did not need replacement. 

“This will not be a demo,” California Gov. Gavin Newsom said during a press conference at the site on Tuesday morning. “We will not need to demolish and replace the I-10, so we will continue the kind of repairs you see being done and continue a shoring plan.”
