Hwy 29/I-10 Interchange Construction Project Begins Today
January 6, 2014
Construction will begin today on a $2.5 million resurfacing project on I-10 from west of Highway 29 to east of Palafox Street in Escambia County.
The project also includes the milling and resurfacing of all ramps and ramp shoulders associated with the U.S. 29/I-10 interchange, shoulder widening, guardrail upgrades, crash cushion replacement, removal of portable traffic monitoring sites (PTMS), installation of new signs, pavement markings, and sodding. The entire project is slated for completion summer 2014.
During construction drivers will encounter overnight lane restrictions on both I-10 and the U.S. 29/ I-10 interchange. Lane closures on I-10 and intermittent closures or restrictions on the interchange will be limited to 10 p.m. to 6 a.m.
All planned construction activities are weather dependent and may be rescheduled in the event of inclement weather.

rob is right! It doesnt need resurfacing… it needs redesigning. To add road crews to this area… Im just waiting for the wrecks to start.- black ice to boot
I haven’t driven the stretch in sometime but it was fine then maybe a year or so ago but by the looks of the photo it still appears to be in fair shape. Is it really necessary? What percentages are their in federal and state funding?

That is a very poorly designed and dangerous interchange. I don’t believe I have seen any other exit in the local area where traffic must merge into the fast lane from an on-ramp.
$2.5 million and there is really nothing wrong with the surface of the road now.
I wonder……..in the lanes on the west side of the overpass on the west bound lanes, there is a spring or ECUA water leak coming up thru the pavement.
Maybe they will fix it.
I bet it makes some black ice tonight.
It is just over the horizon in the picture above.
