The lower Level of Southbound I-35 Downtown Will Be Closed From South Alamo To South Laredo Streets

by Tre Serrano

 

San Antonio drivers, brace yourselves. Starting today, the lower level of southbound I-35—from South Alamo to South Laredo Street—is closed for bridge joint replacements, with the work expected to last through mid-June.


🛑 What’s Closed?

  • Southbound I-35 Lower Level

  • Between South Alamo & South Laredo

  • Closure includes all access ramps and exits in this stretch

⏱️ How Long Will This Last?

TxDOT estimates the repairs will be completed by mid-June 2025, weather permitting.

🚗 Detours & Driver Tips:

  • Use Upper Level I-35 or detour via Cesar Chavez Blvd

  • Expect heavier traffic downtown, especially during rush hours

  • Plan extra travel time if you live or work in the area

  • Consider alternate routes like I-10 or US-281 to avoid downtown congestion

🏙️ Why It Matters:

Bridge joint replacements are critical to keeping the highway safe and stable—especially on an aging section of I-35 that carries thousands of vehicles daily. While the short-term inconvenience is real, this project helps prevent long-term structural issues and major closures down the line.
