Lane Closures Begin For I-10 Between Highway 29 and I-110
July 30, 2024
I-10 between Highway 29 and I-110 has been reduced to two travel lanes in each direction.
The Highway 29 northbound ramp to I-10 eastbound will also be closed. Traffic on Highway 29 northbound will be detoured to make a U-turn at Broad Street to access I-10 eastbound.
The work is part of a $236 million construction project that is improving capacity and safety for the 62,000 daily drivers who travel the I-10/Highway 29 interchange. The project is estimated for completion in 2030.
All activities are weather dependent and may be delayed or rescheduled in the event of inclement weather.

What a mess! Right lane abruptly ends, I know because it happened to me! What genius designed this. Wait to evacuation from a hurricane, pack you lunch, several gallons of gas cans, water, and sleeping bags, you are going to need it because it is now the worst time for construction!!
The map displayed is the one for what the construction will do to straighten out I10. Get the correct map and then show the detours!
Frank you are correct. Wonder why those who drew the map missed this.
Even this east bound detour map is wrong. Who at the State level approves these things. there is no road that enters the I-10 on the southside east bound. (Where they have it closed especially)
@Taxpayer:
Because 2-3 years ago was actually more like 8 years ago.

Soooo….the detour is a forced u-turn on Hwy 29? That’s one heck of a whifferdill…
Seriously?
@tax payer — because we live in a highly complex thing called reality where things don’t work out perfectly
Tax payer that’s a good question but I’m asking why they didn’t fix all of this 13 years ago when they redid this entire exchange….and will they fix that stupid west bound onramp that puts you in the passing lane on a curve! I swear we have got some of the worst road planners in the state and have had them for decades.
WHY didn’t they do all this 2-3 years ago when they had it torn up????????????????
