TxDOT: Final weekend of closures at Loop 1604 / I-10 interchange on 2024

SAN ANTONIO (KTSA News) — If you drive a lot on the Northwest Side, you are in line for a break at the Loop 1604 and I-10 interchange – but not yet.

The final weekend of closures at the busy interchange in 2024 begins Friday night starting at 9 p.m. By 5 a.m. Monday morning, the interchange will open up with no more interruptions through the end of December.

For the weekend of November 22, the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) will close the westbound mainlanes of I-10 at the interchange. The eastbound mainlanes of Loop 1604 will be closed Friday night only. Additional minor closures will take place around the interchange.

These closures will allow crews to install steel beams and continue the construction of the flyover ramps at the interchange. Steel beam work is currently 80% complete with 120 beams in place. The first flyover ramp is scheduled to open by the end of the year, connecting drivers from eastbound Loop 1604 to westbound I-10.

Note: 

• Access to businesses will remain open during construction.
• Law enforcement officers will assist with traffic flow at intersections.
• Closures may open early if work is completed, and the road is safe for drivers.
• Plan ahead for delays by using your preferred navigation app to estimate travel times.

TxDOT stresses the fact that no closures will be scheduled from Thanksgiving through the end of the year.
