HOUSTON - A major roadway closure in Houston may spell traffic issues for some drivers this weekend.
According to the Texas Department of Transportation, all northbound mainlanes of I-610 West Loop at I-69 Southwest Freeway will be closed from 9 p.m. Friday until Monday, July 18 at 5 a.m.
The work is part of the I-610 West Loop/I-69 Southwest Freeway interchange project.
TXDOT says the $259 million project will significantly enhance safety and improve mobility by widening the connector ramps to two lanes, increasing sight distances, and providing remedies to eliminate weaving.
