Borderland Road Closures: Plan Ahead

It's April 29th.

Welcome to El Paso News today, powered by AI.

Texas Department of Transportation is hitting the borderland with another wave of road

closures after that 48 hours shut down on Interstate 10.

Eastbound from Anthony, New Mexico, to Los Moches Road in El Paso, over the April 25th

through 27th weekend.

Right now, crews kicked off a full closure of South Desert Boulevard between ArtCraft

Road and Trans Mountain Road starting Monday, April.

27th, running nightly from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. through Thursday, April 30th, as they prepped

for a girder set.

Then Wednesday, April 29th through Friday, May 1st, the Interstate 10 west on-ramp before

ArtCraft closes daily from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Drivers are feeling the pinch with these backup stretching commute times, especially on

key routes like Mesa and Dyer Streets, where right lane.

Clojas pop up for safety lighting work through May 1st.

One deal on Horizon Boulevard and Darrington Road, with alternating lanes shut for reconstruction.

Looking ahead, Borderland Expressway Phase 2 brings alternate lane closures on US 54 and

Mesquite Hills Drive this week, plus a full.

Weekend shut down of Martin Luther King Boulevard, North and Southbound from May 9th to 11th.

Another 48 hour closure hits Interstate 10 westbound at Los Moches Road, May 16th through

18th.

you posted as these projects push forward for smoother roads.
