I-10 Improvement Project in Boerne: Ramp Closure & Traffic Switch Coming Up

Our contractor working on the I-10 improvement project in Boerne from SH 46 to Cascade Caverns/Scenic Loop is progressing into the next phase of construction. 

During this new phase, contractor Texas Sterling will be enhancing the westbound I-10 frontage road and Business US 87 bridge, prompting necessary traffic closures and detours August 15-18, (weather permitting). These closures are required for safety to divert traffic away from construction work.

Closures and Detours:

The westbound I-10 mainlanes between Parkway and Crosspoint will be closed and I-10 traffic will be diverted to the temporary pavement in the median.



In addition, the westbound Business US 87 Exit 542 Ramp into Boerne will be permanently closed. Westbound drivers seeking to access US 87 should:

1) Take Exit 540 to SH 46 and Use eastbound SH 46 to access US 87.

OR

2) Take Scenic Loop (Exit 543) to the westbound frontage road and merge onto existing US 87.




What is being constructed:

• The new Business US 87 and westbound I-10 frontage road intersection,
• The new westbound frontage road.
• The new Backstage Rd. #3 (The Tower at Boerne Center and O’Reilly Auto Parts).
• New retaining walls.

What to expect:

Drivers should expect slower travel times and increased traffic flows along the existing westbound frontage road and the SH 46 intersection during this phase of construction. We appreciate everyone’s patience as our contractors continue to make significant progress on this I-10 improvement project.
