The cloverleaf at the busy Loop 1604 and Interstate 10 intersection will be replaced with a five-level interchange and an improved underpass.
Nick Wagner / San Antonio ReportSituated in far Northwest San Antonio, the two major highway systems connect near, well, everything: La Cantera, The Rock and the Rim, Valero headquarters and hospitals, UTSA’s main campus and an entertainment district that includes Six Flags Fiesta Texas, Topgolf and several restaurants.
As part of the Texas Department of Transportation’s widening of a 2.8-mile stretch of Loop 1604 from a four- to 10-lane expressway and adding high-occupancy vehicle lanes, the project will replace the existing highway connections with a five-level interchange and new modern flyovers taller than a 10-story office tower.to cope with frequent lane and exit closures and added congestion. The work to improve that section of the loop won’t be complete until 2027.
The flyovers are designed to provide higher-speed connections and continuous connectivity between I-10 and Loop 1604, an interchange where traffic volumes are expected to double by 2045. In addition to turnarounds and roundabouts to encourage continuous traffic flow, the surface parking beneath the interchange will be expanded to accommodate pedestrians and cyclists using the city’s linear trail system.
