The main area affected will be the southbound lanes between University Boulevard and Greatwood Parkway. They will reopen on Monday, June 9.
Officials said three lanes will shift to the right to the newly constructed southbound mainland bridge.

The HOV and one additional southbound main lane will shift left around the work zone.
TXDOT says this closure is partly due to phase 2 of the $53 million project to extend the I-69 Brazos River Bridge and the feeder lanes north by 1,000 feet. The river is slowly eroding the land under the bridge, which is the main reason for the project's beginning.
The southbound frontage bridge remains under construction and is scheduled for completion at the end of 2025. The northbound mainlanes and frontage are still in need of work, and therefore, the entire project is set for completion in late 2027. TxDOT says it will address erosion and improve traffic flow and safety for all drivers.
