The Texas Department of Transportation is completing milestone after milestone on the I-69/I-610 interchange project, but they’ve still got a couple of years left before the work is complete.

This is the busiest interchange in Texas, with more than 250,000 vehicles traveling through 59 and 610 a day! Major work has been underway for quite some time now, and TxDOT’s most recent accomplishment: opening the connector ramps that lead drivers into the Galleria area. These connector ramps were supposed to be shut down for six to eight months, when they first closed during the summer.

It’s been a couple of months since the Texas Department of Transportation shut down two major connectors ramps of the 69/610 interchange. So how much work have crews been able to get done since the shutdown?
