The westbound main lanes of Loop 1604 will be closed, where they meet the interstate, pushing drivers off the highway to take the access road through the intersection.<\/p>\n<p>The eastbound lanes of Loop 1604 will be closed at these same times. So, anyone heading that way looking to get on I-10 West, heading north, will have to exit for eastbound I-10 and take the U-turn at DeZavala Road.<\/p>\n<p>These closures may feel inconvenient now, but it\u2019s all in the name of progress.

So, this expansion project is to prepare for future growth but also to give benefits to drivers in the next few years \u2026 It\u2019s bringing a lot of congestion relief to drivers by giving them more lanes to travel on. And then, of course, when you reduce congestion, you increase safety for the drivers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another round of daytime closures kicks off Saturday through Sunday, shutting down two flyover ramps connecting Loop 1604 and I-10.
