I-10 To Highway 29 Ramp Closures Planned
June 4, 2014
The exit ramp from eastbound I-10 to northbound U.S. 29 will be closed today and tomorrow. Lane closures will be in effect from 10 p.m.to 6 a.m. nightly as crews install guardrails and remove a temporary barrier wall. Motorists will be directed to use the southbound U.S. 29 off ramp during the temporary closure. Drivers are reminded to use extreme caution when traveling through the work zone.
This work is part of the I-10 resurfacing project, which extends from U.S. 29 to east of Palafox Street. 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 may be rescheduled in the event of inclement weather.
