I-45 SB to be closed over the weekend
Parts of I-45, US-290, and SH-288 will be closed over the weekend.

We have several significant closures this weekend:

  • I-45 NB from Nasa Pkwy to Scarsdale, two lanes closed, Fri 9 p.m. - Mon 5 a.m.
  • I-45 SB TOTAL CLOSURE from FM-518 to FM-517, Fri 9 p.m. - Mon 5 a.m.
  • US-290 EB TOTAL CLOSURE from FM-529 to BW-8, Fri 9 p.m. - Sat 10 p.m.
  • SH-288 NB TOTAL CLOSURE at BW-8, Sat 8 p.m. - Sun 10 a.m.

Starting May 5 at 9 p.m., TxDOT will close the southbound lanes of IH-45 from FM 518 to FM 517 to switch traffic lanes to facilitate the reconstruction of IH-45.

In addition, northbound lanes on IH-45 from NASA Bypass to Scarsdale are scheduled for intermittent closures throughout the weekend to stripe the new highway. If all goes as planned, lanes are expected to reopen 5 a.m. on Monday, May 8.
