Several lanes on US 183 will be closed for construction from June 6 to June 8, 2025, as part of the ongoing 183 North Mobility Project, which aims to improve transportation in the area. The lane closures specifically affect three of the four southbound lanes along US 183, stretching from Hunters Chase Drive/Oceanaire Boulevard to Riata Trace Parkway and Pavilion Boulevard.
The closures will occur continuously for 24 hours a day during this three-day period. This initiative, overseen by the Central Texas Regional Mobility Authority (CTRMA), is designed to enhance roadway efficiency and safety for all users.
Motorists are advised to plan ahead and anticipate delays due to the construction work. Detour routes and alternate exits will be made available to assist drivers in navigating around the closure area. On-road signage will also be strategically placed to provide directions and information to avoid confusion.
Project Implementation and Safety Measures
Construction crews will work diligently to complete the necessary tasks as quickly and safely as possible, with the goal of reopening the closed lanes at the earliest opportunity. Drivers are urged to slow down in the construction zone and remain attentive to all signage related to the work, as the safety of both workers and drivers is paramount during this period.
Impact of Weather and Other Factors
The progress of the construction may be subject to delays due to unforeseen weather conditions or other potential factors impacting the work. As a result, schedules and activities related to the closures might change as needed. Stakeholders are encouraged to stay informed of any such updates to the construction timeline.
