Sponsor Our ArticlesSan Antonio residents should prepare for significant lane reductions on southbound I-35 starting Monday. The closures, lasting approximately a month, aim to enhance road safety and stability amid ongoing construction. Drivers are encouraged to plan ahead for potential delays as the project is part of a larger $25.9 million initiative to improve roadway safety. Additional lane closures in the Northeast area are also on the horizon, affecting various routes in and around the city.
Hey San Antonio! If you’ve been planning to hit the roads in downtown anytime soon, here’s something you might want to take note of. Starting this Monday, southbound Interstate 35 is gearing up for some significant lane reductions that could affect your daily commutes. The lane reduction will stretch from Martin St. to César E. Chávez Blvd, and it is all part of a larger construction effort that aims to boost the safety and reliability of our roadways.
So, what’s all this fuss about? Well, the construction work is vital for completing joint repairs that are necessary to maintain pavement stability, especially since San Antonio loves to keep its weather unpredictable. You know how it goes—one minute it’s sunny; the next, you’re stuck in a downpour. With the upcoming works, crews are looking to ensure that the roads can withstand whatever Mother Nature throws our way.
The closures are set to last a full 24 hours every day and are expected to remain in place for around a month. That’s right; for approximately a month starting this Monday, the flow of traffic is going to be a little different. By the end of February 2025, you’ll be able to enjoy smoother road conditions. Many drivers are advised to plan ahead and expect possible delays; this is definitely a project you don’t want to get caught off-guard by!
This construction is part of the extensive San Antonio Interstate 35 and Interstate 10 downtown repair project, which comes with a hefty price tag of $25.9 million. It spans a total of 5.5 miles on I-35, stretching from S. Laredo St. all the way to I-37/Camden St., and on I-10 from I-35 to Hildebrand Ave. This ambitious initiative is designed to improve safety and enhance the overall driving experience for everyone in the area.
If you’re driving on the Northeast Side, brace yourself for more lane closures! The I-35 NEX (Northeast Expansion) project, which boasts a total budget of $700 million, is also on the move. They’ll be implementing new road improvements and creating elevated lanes over four miles. Keep an eye out for lane closures that will impact drivers around Live Oak, Retama Park, and Universal City.
And it doesn’t stop there. This project will also see upcoming closures including the southbound I-35 collector ramp to Loop 1604 and the exit to Pat Booker Road. Main lane closures will take place from Retama Parkway to Loop 1604 for drainage, barrier, and striping work from 9 p.m. on January 10 to 5 a.m. on January 13. So, make sure you have a reliable navigation app handy to avoid any last-minute surprises!
As construction progresses, multiple lane closures on I-35 are expected to continue well into 2025, so buckle up for an extended journey of road work. The outlook for completion of the overall project isn’t until Fall 2025, so it’s a good idea to stay updated on future changes that could affect your travel plans.
So there you have it, folks! Stay safe, plan ahead, and let’s get through these road repairs together. Happy driving!
