TxDOT sends out notices for emergency repairs, bridge work

The Texas Department of Transportation has sent out lane closure notices for Interstate 10 today and tomorrow.

The outside lane of I-10 westbound just west of Smith Road will be closed for several hours due to emergency repairs, a TxDOT traffic alert said.

“Expect delays,” the alert said.

I-10 westbound at Brooks Road also will be closed overnight from 10:30 p.m. to 5 a.m., due to bridge work, another TxDOT alert said.

“Traffic will be diverted to the Brooks (Road) jug handles and back around to (Interstate) 10,” the alert said. “Expect delays.”
