Major Weekend Road Closures Coming to San Antonio
San Antonio drivers, mark your calendars! The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) is ramping up work on the North Loop 1604 Expansion Project, and that means another round of road closures is coming your way. The closures will begin this Friday at 9 p.m. and will continue through the weekend until 5 a.m. on Monday. If you’re planning to hit the roads, you’ll want to read on!
What Roads Are Affected?
This weekend, the closures will primarily target key areas that many of you use regularly. Here’s the rundown:
- Loop 1604 at Hausman Road
- Loop 1604 at the Interstate 10 interchange
- Loop 1604 at Stone Oak Parkway
These closures may cause some traffic hiccups, so it’s a good idea to plan your routes in advance to avoid unnecessary delays.
Why the Closures?
These road closures are a part of the bigger picture – improving transportation in the region! TxDOT is working hard to enhance access and streamline traffic patterns to make driving safer and more efficient for everyone. They’re making every effort to schedule these disruptions during times when they will have the least impact on your weekend plans.
Access to Businesses
If you frequent businesses near these construction zones, don’t worry! All access to those local shops and eateries will remain open throughout the weekend. So whether you’re craving your favorite taco spot or need to grab a last-minute item at the store, you’ll still be able to get there without too much hassle.
Traffic Management
To help with the expected increase in congestion, a police presence will be stationed around the impacted areas to ensure traffic flows as smoothly as possible. This will hopefully make your experience a bit less frustrating while navigating the detours.
What If the Work Finishes Early?
One silver lining in all of this construction chaos is that if the work wraps up sooner than expected, the roads will reopen ahead of schedule! Fingers crossed for a speedy completion!
Plan Ahead!
