Motorists driving on I-35 through North Austin should plan for nighttime lane closures this weekend and beyond.
Starting at 9 p.m. March 7, the Texas Department of Transportation will close northbound lanes on I-35 at the interstate’s intersection with US 183.
From March 7-10, TxDOT will reduce the main lanes on northbound I-35 to one lane from 9 p.m. to 5 a.m. The I-35 northbound frontage road will be closed at US 183 each night, with traffic detoured to the main lanes at the US 290 E. entrance ramp, according to a March 5 news release from TxDOT. All lanes and road closures are expected to reopen each morning by 5 a.m.
TxDOT will also close the northbound US 183 main lanes between the I-35 and Lamar Boulevard exit and the highway’s intersection with I-35. Motorists will be detoured to the US 183 frontage road and will be allowed to re-enter the main lanes at the next available entrance ramp.
