TOTAL CLOSURE OF I-10/KATY FREEWAY WESTBOUND & MULTIPLE I-10/I-610 DIRECT CONNECTOR RAMPS
"Motorists are Encouraged to Avoid the Area and Seek Alternate Travel Routes"
(Houston) - This weekend, starting 9 PM, Friday, February 1 until 5 AM, Monday, February 4, the Texas Department of Transportation's contractor for the reconstruction of I-10/Katy Freeway just east of the West Loop will close I-10/Katy Freeway westbound between Washington Avenue and I-610/West Loop. The I 10 westbound direct connector ramps to I-610 northbound and southbound will also be closed over the weekend. The closures are needed for the contractor to demolish the temporary Union Pacific Railroad Bridge that crosses over the I-10/Katy Freeway west of Washington Avenue. The combination of these concurrently scheduled closures is going to significantly impact traffic flow in the vicinity of the I-10/I-610 interchange this weekend. Motorists are strongly encouraged to avoid the area and seek alternate routes to destinations in proximity to this area.
I-10/Katy Freeway westbound traffic will be detoured to exit at Washington Avenue, to make a right and continue to Old Katy Road to access the I-10 westbound frontage road and enter the I-10/Katy Freeway at Antoine. The I-10/Katy Freeway westbound direct connector ramps to I-610/West Loop will be closed starting 9 PM Friday, February 1 until 5 AM Monday, February 4. I-10 westbound traffic destined to I-610 northbound will detour to Old Katy Road, to the I-610 northbound frontage road. I-10 westbound traffic destined to I-610 southbound will detour to Old Katy Road, make a left on North Post Oak to access the I-610 southbound frontage road and enter the I-610 mainlanes after Woodway.
