The lane closures are only overnight, no earlier than 11:30 pm and no later than 6:00 am.
If you need to drop off or pick up people during those hours, I recommend using the Economy Parking structure. We regularly use the LAX shuttle buses between the parking structure and the terminal even when not parking there. We drop off or pick up on 94th Street. The shuttles pick up and drop off passengers at the side of the facility opposite the entrance - the southeast corner below the APM station - and use the inner roadway in the horseshoe.
