I-35 in northeast Bexar County to briefly close this weekend for construction, TxDOT says

BEXAR COUNTY, Texas – Both directions of Interstate 35 in northeast Bexar County are expected to be closed this weekend for construction, according to the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT).

In a news release, TxDOT said the northbound and southbound I-35 main lanes from Olympia Parkway to Evans Road will be closed for concrete deck pour.

The closures last from 8 p.m. on Friday, May 8, through 7 a.m. on Saturday, May 9, a TxDOT spokesperson told KSAT.

To avoid the construction, northbound drivers can exit at Olympia Parkway onto the I-35 access road and follow the detour to the Pasatiempo entrance, then return to northbound I-35.

Southbound drivers can exit at the Retama Parkway, Olympia Parkway and Forum Parkway combined exit to the I-35 access road. Then, follow the detour to the next available entrance ramp near Arcadia Drive.
