TOTAL CLOSURE OF I-10/KATY FREEWAY AT SH-6 NEXT WEEKEND
"West Houston Drivers Should Expect Delays"
Next weekend, beginning 10 PM, Friday, April 18 until 5 AM, Monday, April 21, Texas Department of Transportation contractor, Williams Brothers, will close the I-10/Katy Freeway eastbound and westbound mainlanes between Dairy Ashford and Park Ten. This closure is required for the placing of bridge beams for the new SH-6 overpass bridge. Law enforcement will be stationed at key locations to facilitate the movement of traffic in the area. However, due to the complexity of the work to be performed and the broad work area required, drivers are strongly encouraged to use alternate travel routes to avoid delays where feasible. Detour information will be released next week.
Please note that all closures are subject to change due to inclement weather. For more information on the Katy Freeway Reconstruction Program including up to date information regarding other lane closures along the I-10 corridor, please visit the Katy Freeway website at www.katyfreeway.org or contact the Katy Freeway Public Information Office at 281-589-5924.
