Work on the I-10 Kendall Expansion Project is progressing into the next phase of construction. This phase will include the permanent conversion of existing frontage roads from two-way traffic to one-way traffic operations along eastbound I-10 near Boerne.
The frontage road conversion aims to improve safety, as well as reduce traffic congestion and delays. According to the Texas Transportation Institute, the conversion of frontage roads into one-way traffic operations can improve safety by up to 86%.
On Monday, July 27, drivers will see changes along the I-10 eastbound frontage road from US-87 to SH-46.
1. The eastbound frontage road will be converted from two-way traffic to one-way traffic operations between Upper Balcones Road and US-87.
2. Traffic traveling west on the eastbound frontage road will be detoured over US-87 and through town to SH-46.
3. The new westbound frontage road between US-87 and Christus Parkway will not be operational during this time.
4. The eastbound frontage road will remain as two-way traffic operations from US-87 to Scenic Loop Road.
5. Two-way traffic operations will be maintained between SH-46 and Upper Balcones Road.
1. The eastbound frontage road will be converted from two-way traffic to one-way traffic operations from Balcones Creek Road. to Fair Oaks Parkway.
2. Turnaround at Fair Oaks Parkway will be open to traffic.
3. The westbound frontage road will converted from two-way traffic to one-way traffic operations from Fair Oaks Parkway to Balcones Creek Road.
4. The underpass at Balcones Creek Road will be open to traffic.
