Crews to Close 4th Street Under I-35 Tonight for Bridge Paving

August 13, 2020

WACO, Texas (Aug. 13, 2020) - Beginning tonight (Thursday, Aug. 13), the Texas Department of Transportation plans to close all lanes of 4th Street where they cross under I-35 to pave the southbound overpass.

  • Westbound drivers on 4th Street planning to cross under I-35 will need to use westbound University Parks Drive (towards the Ferrell Center), which will be open tonight under I-35 while crews work on the overpass at 4th Street.
  • A reminder that crews are continuing work on the southbound I-35 overpass at University Parks Drive, including lane closures through Friday, Aug. 14.

Also beginning tonight (Thursday, Aug. 13) through Sunday, Aug. 16, crews plan to close all lanes of the northbound frontage road from 17th Street to the entrance ramp just north of 17th Street nightly for paving work.

  • To keep drivers safe and traffic flowing, crews plan to close the northbound exit for 17th/18th Streets (Exit 334A) for the duration of the closure.
  • Local access will be maintained via 18th Street and connecting side streets in the area.
  • Northbound frontage road traffic will need to use 17th/18th Streets and either BUS 77 or US 84/Waco Drive to reconnect with I-35.
