The Texas Department of Transportation is planning overnight southbound I-35 mainlane and ramp closures Tuesday night, April 9, between the Woodland Avenue/Oltorf Street exit and the entrance ramp south of Oltorf Street, weather permitting.
Southbound mainlanes and ramps will begin to close at 10 p.m. with a full mainlane closure in place by 11:45 p.m. At that time, southbound I-35 traffic will be diverted to the frontage road at the Woodland Avenue/Oltorf Street exit (232) and will re-enter I-35 at the entrance ramp south of Oltorf Street. Woodland Avenue and Oltorf Street at I-35 will close to traffic during this time. Drivers wishing to cross I-35 at Woodland Avenue or Oltorf Street should use Woodward Street or Riverside Drive. (See attached map.) All lanes will reopen as work is completed, but no later than 6 a.m.
Drivers are encouraged to use alternate routes, as delays are expected. TxDOT asks the traveling public to adhere to construction signage and remain aware when traveling through the work zone.
These closures are part of the Mobility35 program which will bring mobility, safety, and connectivity for all modes of transportation. To learn more about this project and the Mobility35 program, visit My35Construction.org.
