page last updated May 12, 2023 |
Location
I-10 East from Loop 1604 to Pfeil Rd
Status
Under construction (72% complete)
Timeline
Construction started in February 2020 and is
expected to be
complete in early 2025.
Description
This
project will widen the I-10 mainlanes from four lanes (two each way) to
six lanes (three each way), reconfigure the intersection at Graytown
Rd., raise the overpasses at Loop 1604, adjust entrance and exit ramps,
and convert the access roads to one-way.
This
project essentially extends the work being done between Loop 1604 and
Loop 410.
Other
than raising the I-10 overpasses over Loop 1604, this
project does not make any changes to the Loop 1604
interchanges; a future project will add elevated connectors (flyovers)
there.
How
this
project will help
This
section of I-10 has experienced significant traffic growth over
the past decade and the adjacent area is beginning to see increasing
development, so the additional lane in each direction should
accommodate anticipated traffic volumes for the next couple of decades.
This project also dovetails on a statewide plan to expand all
of
I-10 between San Antonio and Houston.
Schematic
Below is the detailed schematic for this
project from TxDOT with my own annotations added to help clarify and
explain the various elements. Click on

to open the schematic in a new window that you can scroll and zoom.
Note
that the schematic used here includes the eventual Loop 1604
interchange flyovers, access roads, and ramp revisions that are not included in this
project. These discrepancies are
noted in the annotations.
(Note: the
schematic is somewhat large and may take a few seconds to open.)
