EL PASO, Texas — As the I-10 Connect Project enters its final months, crews will be working in several locations to relocate safety barriers, paint newly constructed bridges and complete landscape work. While that work will lead to several short-term closures next week, overnight construction of a new overpass carrying US 62 (Paisano Drive) over Interstate 110 near the Bridge of the Americas will require motorists bound for Mexico to utilize other ports of entry for several nights later this month and early next.

About the I-10 Connect Project

The I-10 Connect project is at the intersection of Interstate 10 and US 54 in El Paso County. The project extends from I-10 to Loop 375 (Cesar Chávez Border Highway) and provides access to the Bridge of the Americas (BOTA) via I-110. The $96 million project includes the construction of four new direct connectors, a full reconstruction of the I-110/US 62 (Paisano Drive) interchange, and removes exit ramps from US 62 to I-110.

I-10 Connect will improve connectivity between I-10 and Loop 375, also providing an alternate route to I-10. It started February 19, 2019, and is expected to be complete in less than three years.
