As part of the I-35 Northeast Expansion Central Project, which broke ground in May, there will be a permanent closure of the Loop 1604 eastbound entrance and a temporary closure of the Lookout Road turnaround lanes beginning in January.

According to the Texas Department of Transportation, traffic will access eastbound Loop 1604 using the next available entrance ramp, which is between Biltmore Lakes and IKEA-RBFCU Parkway.

This closure is to prepare for the construction of the elevated ramp from Loop 1604 to I-35.

The temporary closure for the Lookout Road turnaround is expected to begin in late January and will remain closed during construction work on the existing Loop 1604 bridge above Lookout Road.
