Falling temperatures have not slowed down road work and construction across the area through December 11th.

Here are areas to avoid if possible and if not, plan plenty of extra transit time.

On I-27 expect closures from Washington to Hollywood for patching and edge repair.

On i-40 at Soncy the eastbound and westbound inside lanes are closed and the eastbound and westbound frontage roads between Loop 335 and Helium are also closed.  The frontage road is reduced to alternating single lanes.

At the I-40/I-27 interchange the inside lane of the I-27 southbound frontage road is closed.

The right land of FM 1541 southbound from I-27 to 58th will be closed during daytime hours.

The eastbound and westbound left lanes of I-40 will be closed from I-27 to Grand.

The right lane of the I-40 eastbound frontage road will be closed around Osage.

There are many areas of construction on projects involving South Loop 335.  From Washington to Valley View Lane the speed limit is reduced in both directions.  The on-ramp from Washington to westbound Loop 335 is temporarily realigned for widening.  The intersection of South Western and Loop 335 is being controlled by temporary traffic signals.  The intersection of South Georgia Street and Loop 335 has a four way stop. The will also be work on the shoulders between Washington and Georgia along Loop 335.

TxDot reminds drivers to slow down in all work zones.
