The construction project will stretch from Loop 410 to State Highway 211. The project is part of TxDOT&#8217;s Texas Clear Lanes initiative and is designed to address growing traffic congestion in one of San Antonio&#8217;s fastest-growing areas.<\/p>\n<p>The project will widen U.S. 90 from four lanes to six, add a flyover ramp connecting westbound U.S. 90 to northbound Loop 1604, improve intersections at Loop 1604, Montgomery Road and Hunt Lane, and build new turnaround bridges, sidewalks and a roundabout near Ray Ellison Boulevard and Hunt Lane.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Work is being completed in phases, with the first segment between Loop 410 and Loop 1604 expected to finish by 2030. A second phase extending improvements to SH 211 is scheduled to begin in 2027 but remains only partially funded.\u00a0TxDOT estimates traffic along the corridor could more than double to 150,000 vehicles a day by 2045 if growth continues, and says the expansion could reduce future commute times by as much as 90%.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Drivers beware!
