Traffic on IH-10 Today…

[BMTSoulja1]

Because crews will be installing beams by Walden Road.  Question.  What’s up with the construction standing from there all the way past Ford Park?  Overpass work?  I was under the impression that traffic ran fine eastbound and westbound.  Just looks like a huge mess they’re creating for today…

I think I read somewhere that they’re replacing the dividers between east and westbound in an effort to alleviate flooding. Not sure if that’s today?

Not sure about Walden Road. The Major Drive and Brooks Road overpasses are being converted to I-10 overpasses. Major Drive is completed while Brooks Road is still under construction. It has everything to do with Ford Park traffic. Had my doubts at first, but Major Drive is a huge improvement on appearance and practicality.

Didn’t think there was flooding issues at that part of the Freeway…

Ford park you say?  Didn’t know there was previous traffic issues there besides the fair traffic.  Which they’ll happen regardless…

Heading west on I-10, exiting on Major to go to Ford  Park was very difficult on the two laned asphalt overpass. Of course you will always have congestion with fair traffic, but there is much more room now with a turnaround.

All I know is traffic on I10/69 last few years has been horrible......
