  Loop 1604 North Expansion Project
NEW BRIDGE OPENING
AT BLANCO RD. AND LOOP 1604
Blanco Rd. will be closed this weekend at Loop 1604 to allow crews to finalize the opening of the new bridge on the morning of Monday, November 4.
As part of the Loop 1604 North Expansion project, TxDOT has planned the closure of all lanes of Blanco Rd. at the Loop 1604 intersection for the weekend of Nov. 1. The intersection is expected to open to traffic by 5 a.m. on Monday, Nov. 4. These closures will allow crews to finalize the opening of the new Blanco Rd. bridge across Loop 1604.
The closures are scheduled to occur from 9 p.m., Friday, Nov. 1 through 5 a.m. Monday, Nov. 4, weather permitting.
A new traffic pattern for the Blanco Rd. bridge across Loop 1604 will be in place once the closures conclude on the morning of Monday, Nov. 4.
TxDOT is committed to scheduling closures that create the least impact to traffic and allow work to be completed safely. Drivers are encouraged to consider the construction schedule as they plan activities and keep this important information in mind:
- Access to businesses will remain open during construction.
- Law enforcement officers will assist with traffic flow at intersections.
- Closures may open early if work is completed, and the road is safe for drivers.
