Visitors to the Rainey Street District, take heed. Red River Street will be closed from Cesar Chavez to Driskill streets starting at 7 a.m. on Saturday. It will reopen at 7 p.m. on Sunday. “The closure will allow construction crews to conduct restoration in the area for the forthcoming development at 98 Red River Street called The Waterline,” according to a news release from the city. This part of the street had been closed earlier in the year to install chilled water lines. Get more transit news here.
