I-10 Widening and Reconstruction Project

Monthly Public Outreach and Communication Report

State Project H.004100

Project Status

Progress continues on the new City Park Lake Bridge. Pile driving operations have concluded and crews have begun constructing the bridge pier caps and fabricating the arches of the new bridge. Once these have been installed, crews will begin setting girders, which is estimated to begin early 2025, weather permitting. These operations remain ongoing from Monday through Saturday during daytime hours.

 

Additionally, excavation of the new I-10 westbound Dalrymple Dr. off-ramp has been completed and drainage is currently being installed for the new ramp. The abutment and wing wall near Dalrymple Dr.

has been erected and crews are currently disassembling the forms to begin installation for the new abutment wall near E. Lakeshore Dr.


While work is ongoing, residents and motorists throughout the corridor can expect to see an increase in truck traffic, as well as an increase in noise during the day.

On November 27, 2023, E. Lakeshore Dr. was closed where it passes beneath I-10 as depicted in red on the accompanying diagram. This local street will remain closed for approximately three years while crews work on the permanent widening of I-10 over City Park Lake. Northbound and southbound motorists on E. Lakeshore Dr. are advised to use Dalrymple Dr. for the duration of this closure.  


This portion of E. Lakeshore Dr. will not be accessible to motorists, pedestrians or bicyclists as this is an active construction site.
