Houston traffic: I-69 SW Freeway mainlanes at 610 W Loop to be closed all weekend

If you're planning on hopping on the roadways, you might want to double-check your route because one Houston roadway is undergoing construction.

All northbound and southbound mainlanes of I-69 Southwest Freeway at I-610 West Loop will be closed for construction from Friday, Sept. 9 at 8 p.m. to Monday, Sept. 11 at 5 a.m., according to the Texas Department of Transportation.

This work will be part of the I-610 West Loop/ I-69 Southwest Freeway interchange project and crews will continue to work on the new I-69 southbound connector ramp to I-610 southbound while performing other work related to the interchange project.

Ramp construction will also need nightly closures starting Monday, Sept. 11 to Friday, Sept. 15 from 9 p.m. until 5 a.m. each night.
