San Antonio drivers should prepare for frightful traffic this weekend and next week, with the Texas Department of Transportation planning major closures on Loop 1604, Interstate 10 and Loop 410.<\/p>\n
TxDOT announced it will close the eastbound lanes of I-10 at its crossing with Loop 1604 on the Northwest Side between 9\u00a0p.m. and 5 a.m. each night from Friday through Monday.<\/p>\n
During those hours, the frontage roads for Loop 1604 will also be closed at the interchange, going both ways.<\/p>\n
Those closures are being made as part of TxDOT’s $1.4 billion Loop 1604 North Expansion Project, which will expand the highway from four to 10 lanes across a long stretch of the North Side. It is expected to be complete\u00a0in 2028.<\/p>\n
As part of a separate project to expand I-35 across the Northeast Side, known as I-35 NEX, TxDOT plans to close the westbound lanes of Loop 1604 at its crossing with I-35 from 8 p.m. Saturday until 7 a.m. Sunday.<\/p>\n
Also as part of that project, the agency will close the eastbound lanes of Loop 1604 between Harry Wurzbach Road and Starcrest Drive, just west of the highway’s crossing with Interstate 35, between 8 p.m. and 5 a.m. on both Friday and Saturday nights.<\/p>\n
Costing $3 billion, I-35 NEX is expected to be finished in 2030.<\/p>\n
