Loyola bridge construction underway
Tuesday, February 6, 2018 by Katy McElroy
Construction of the Loyola Lane bridge over the future 183 South Expressway has begun. As a result, for about a year, the Loyola Lane crossing over U.S. Highway 183 will be closed. The crossing will be closed to bicycles and pedestrians as well. Loyola Lane west of 183 will also close for about two months to allow crews to construct the new general-purpose lanes and connect them to Loyola. Expect travel delays near these areas. Eventually, the 183 South Expressway will pass underneath Loyola Lane. View the Central Texas Regional Mobility Authority website here for maps of the affected areas, planned traffic impacts of this project and suggested detours for drivers.
