TxDOT Opens New Flyover Ramp at Loop 410 and I-10 in East San Antonio
Opening Marks Major Milestone for Loop 410 and I-10 interchange
in East San Antonio
Motorists traveling Loop 410 in east
San Antonio have a new way to connect to I-10 east. The Texas Department of Transportation
(TxDOT) announced today that contractors opened the new northbound Loop 410 flyover
ramp to eastbound I-10 early Monday morning, July 31. The opening of the
flyover ramp is another big step to improve mobility and enhance safety along the
east side corridor.
Northbound Loop 410 drivers will
use the new flyover ramp to access eastbound I-10. Motorists wanting to access
Ackerman Rd. can use the original exit or exit at E. Houston St.
The new northbound flyover ramp is
part of TxDOT’s $100 million effort to improve the Loop 410 and I-10 east interchange.
Workers will now focus on finishing the westbound I-10 flyover ramp to
southbound Loop 410. When completed, the interchange will have two new flyover
ramps, new turnarounds at Rigsby Ave. and Ackerman Rd., and frontage road
improvements. Williams Brothers Construction Company, Inc., the project
contractor, expects to complete the project in early 2025.
The interchange
project
is part of TxDOT’s Texas Clear Lanes initiative aimed at reducing congestion
and improving safety in five of the state’s largest metro areas, including San
Antonio, Austin, Houston, Dallas, and Fort Worth.
