Construction set to begin on I-35 at SH 123

Serving as the backbone of the regional and national transportation network with 155,000 vehicles traveling through Interstate 35 each day, construction plans have been made for I-35 at State Highway 123 in San Marcos.

The Texas Department of Transportation has planned the construction in order to improve safety, mobility and connectivity for all modes of transportation along the busy interstate.

“The city of San Marcos has experienced tremendous growth,” said Diann Hodges, TxDOT Southwest Communications Director. “Improvements to this area are needed to address bottlenecks and traffic backups that occur on the mainlanes, frontage roads and crossstreet intersections.”
