Closure and Construction Information from the El Paso Communications Division of the Texas Department of Transportation.

I’ve been warning you of the 24-hour closure for the second part a lane shift on I-10 Widening West for a few weeks now, but since it was going to fall on Father’s Day weekend which also hosts the sold-out Cold Play concerts, we came to our senses and have postponed it until next weekend. Happy Father’s Day, dads. Look for overnight closures on North Desert from North Mesa to Medano while we remove some volunteer speed humps (buckled pavement) that sprang up near Mesa and Redd, Monday through Wednesday 9PM-5AM. Traffic will need to get around via Doniphan.
Artcraft will require alternating lane closures the length of the project from South Desert all the way to the NM state line every day next week for electrical work and to haul materials. Thank you for your patience.
Out east, look for the main lanes closed on Loop 375 northbound between Zaragoza and North Loop Monday through Thursday nights for painting, which means that job is nearing completion. Montana Widening is still working on paving the eastbound frontage road, so it will be closed overnight Tuesday and Thursday from George Dieter to Saul Kleinfeld, with locals only allowed access.
Those are the highlights. Per usual I have tried to highlight any exit ramp closures, and watch out for spall repair overnight next week on 10 West between the Cotton bridge and Sunland Park Drive. Y’all stay safe (and hydrated)!
