Northbound I-35 mainlanes to close July 6 for Williams Drive beam set

GEORGETOWN, Texas - The northbound I-35 mainlanes will close overnight July 6 so TxDOT crews can set beams for the Williams Drive bridge in Georgetown.

At 9 p.m., mainlanes will close to traffic between SH 29 and Northwest Boulevard. Traffic will detour to the frontage road at Williams Drive Exit 262 then re-enter the mainlanes north of Northwest Boulevard.

The Williams Drive bridge will also be closed during the beam set. 

Eastbound traffic will detour to the southbound I-35 frontage road and use the U-turn at SH 29 to access Williams Drive. 

Westbound traffic will detour to the northbound I-35 frontage road before turning left at the Lakeway Drive intersection to access Williams Drive.

All lanes will reopen to traffic by 5 a.m., weather permitting.

Road signs will be placed to alert drivers of the upcoming closures. TxDOT is asking travelers to be patient and remain aware when traveling through the work zone.
