Northbound I-35 Mainlane Overnight Closure in New Braunfels

The northbound Interstate 35 (I-35) mainlanes from the northbound I-35 Kohlenberg Road/Conrads Lane exit ramp (Exit 193) to the northbound I-35 entrance ramp at Old Bastrop Road will be closed overnight from 8 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 12 through 10 a.m. Sunday, Dec. 13.

During this operation, traffic will detour by taking the northbound I-35 Kohlenberg Road/Conrads Lane exit ramp (Exit 193) to the northbound I-35 frontage road and use the I-35 entrance ramp at Old Bastrop Road to return to the northbound I-35 mainlanes. This operation will allow for improvements to the new overpass at the Parkway intersection which is scheduled to open at the end of 2021.

Also note these additional overnight closures:
  • The northbound I-35 entrance ramp at Kohlenberg Road/Conrads Lane will be closed beginning 5 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 12
  • The turnaround lanes at FM 306 over the I-35 mainlanes will also be closed during this operation

Work on turnarounds at I-35 and FM 306 (Creekside Crossing) to start Dec. 6, 2020

What improvements are taking place?
The I-35 turnarounds at FM 306 (Creekside Crossing) in both the northbound and southbound directions will be closed starting Sunday, December 6 at 9 p.m. The turnaround closures will be in place for approximately two weeks to allow crews to construct drainage facilities, widen the turnarounds, and repave and restripe the turnaround lanes. Completion of work is dependent on weather.

Detours:
  • Southbound traffic on the I-35 frontage road will make a left turn at the signalized intersection at FM 306 (Creekside Crossing) to access I-35 northbound.
  • Northbound traffic on the I-35 frontage road will make a left turn at the signalized intersection at FM 306 (Creekside Crossing) to access I-35 southbound.
Please note: Two lanes will remain open on the I-35 frontage road in both directions from FM 306 (Creekside Crossing). There will be no change to current traffic patterns on FM 306 (Creekside Crossing) during this work phase.

RM 1376 Highway Improvement Construction Update

 



Construction is currently underway rehabbing two sections of roadway. The first section is from N. School St to Kendall Oaks Dr and the second from Wild Cherry Ln to Walnut Grove Rd. 

Driver can expect moderate delays and queues as pilot cars and flaggers provide traffic control throughout the construction site. Remember, in the beginning of the roadway rehabilitation process you will be driving on compacted dirt, reduce speed in these areas. Seal Coating and Hot Mix Asphalt Paving operations for both sections will begin in mid-December with the intent to complete them by Christmas.

The contractor's schedule is weather dependent and subject to change. Low temperatures will limit the amount of work that can be completed. 

As always, please be mindful of the construction workers onsite. We appreciate your continued patience and cannot stress enough the importance of safety for all persons in a construction zone.
