Brooklyn exit on Interstate 35 near downtown to remain closed into next year

SAN ANTONIO – The Brooklyn Avenue exit on southbound Interstate 35 near downtown is predicted to remain closed in the course of the finish of the year after a hearth previous this summer season closed the ramp there.

Laura Lopez, a spokesperson for TxDOT’s San Antonio District, stated the ramp will likely be closed till the evaluate and analysis are completed.

“Initial structural assessments have been made and we are now in the process of evaluating and exploring options for the bridge moving forward,” Lopez stated. “Due to the extensive damage, it will take some time to complete the process.”

“We are also monitoring the traffic patterns and how they have changed with the closure,” Lopez added.

Crews have been on the web site in a single day to position a concrete barrier on the exit, Lopez stated.

As a consequence, the ramps from northbound Interstate 37 to southbound Interstate 35, and southbound U.S. 281 to southbound Interstate 35 have been closed on Wednesday morning however they have got since reopened.

Lopez stated they “have not been provided with a timeframe.”

The ramp closed in (*35*) after a hearth began within the water drainage space beneath I-35.

Details on the level of the wear and tear have no longer been launched via TxDOT.
