Major roadways within the Harbor Bridge Project limits are continuing to operate normally despite the Arctic blast affecting South Texas, according to Harbor Bridge Project officials.<\/p>\n

All roads and elevated structures in the project area, including US 181, IH 37, and SH 286, remained open to traffic as of Sunday morning’s 9 a.m. update. The routes have been maintained through aggressive pretreatment efforts that extended into Saturday night.<\/p>\n

Transportation authorities say they are prepared to implement closures quickly if conditions deteriorate, and officials say closure notices will be updated immediately if dangerous conditions develop.<\/p>\n

Drivers are still advised to exercise extreme caution and avoid unnecessary travel, as icy conditions remain possible on secondary roads and bridges throughout the Coastal Bend.<\/p>\n
