Street closures from 8 a.m. to about 6 p.m. include the following in the Little Tokyo area:

• First Street from Broadway to Central Avenue

• Central Avenue from First Street to East Third Street

• East Third Street from Central Avenue to Alameda Street

• East Fourth Place from Alameda Street to Merrick Street
