If you’re planning to hit the road tonight in San Antonio, we have some news that might just affect your travel plans. Get ready for some road closures that could cause a bit of a delay on the Northwest Side. That’s right, both Loop 1604 and Interstate 10 will be shut down tonight as construction crews work hard to build new overpasses.
The closures will start at 9 p.m. tonight and are expected to last until 9 a.m. on Saturday. That’s a solid twelve hours for roadwork, so if you’re planning any late-night adventures or early morning outings, you might want to make alternative plans. It’s all hands on deck as traffic in both directions will be rerouted onto the frontage road. If you’re traveling on the I-10 eastbound mainlanes, keep your eyes peeled for signs guiding you towards Loop 1604 westbound.
Now, if you’re thinking, “How do I navigate this mess?” don’t worry, we’ve got you covered! Here’s a quick breakdown:
This closure is part of Phase 2 of the Loop 1604 North Expansion Project, which aims to improve our highways significantly. Now, we know what you’re thinking—what’s the end game here? Good question! There are a total of six phases planned for this project, and Phase 2 is expected to be completed by 2027 if all goes according to plan. That means we’ve got a ways to go, but getting this construction done as quickly as possible helps pave the way for smoother traffic and better roads.
Now, we know that roadwork can be a pain—especially when you’re just trying to get home after a long day. But here’s some good news: all construction closures will be put on hold for the upcoming holidays. So, after tonight, you’ll have a little breather from the detours and delays. Make a note to enjoy those holidays without the hassle of roadwork!
In the meantime, it may be wise to consider alternative routes if your plans take you anywhere near the Loop 1604 and I-10 area tonight. Staying informed about the closures can help you avoid unnecessary delays, and nobody wants to be stuck in traffic when they could be enjoying their weekend plans!
So, San Antonio, stay safe and drive carefully out there. Whether you’re heading home, to dinner, or a fun night out, just remember to follow the signs and keep your cool! Happy travels!
