Sunday, August 21 and Sunday, August 28 from 6 am – 7 pm. I-10 West will be closed at Causeway.  Traffic will be diverted through the Causeway exit.

 

All I-10 West traffic will be forced to exit at Causeway.  The exit contains two lanes. I-10 west traffic will use the left lane to return to I-10 west via the collector Road.  The right lane will allow access to Veterans and North Causeway. 
 
The I-10 west on-ramp at Bonnabel will also be closed.  Veterans and Bonnabel traffic should detour west on Veterans and enter I-10 west at the temporary Severn entrance or at Clearview.
 
All Causeway Blvd on/off ramps will remain open.
 
Heavy delays are expected and drivers are strongly encouraged to use alternate routes: 
 
I-610 West: Detour to I-10 east to US-61 North (Airline Dr.), to Clearview North, to I-10 West.
 
I-10 West:  Detour to US-61 North (Airline Dr.), to Clearview North, to I-10 West.
 

The contractor will be installing the steel girders for the new I-10 east on-ramp from Southbound Causeway.  Once complete, the new ramp will span over Veterans, Causeway and I-10 west to join I-10 east.
 
No vehicle restrictions.
