Bridge deck operations scheduled for Loop 88
Slide Road intersection to be closed on Saturday
LUBBOCK – On Saturday, May 31, Slide Road, at Loop 88 (FM 1585), will be closed to traffic from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. to allow crews to safely pour the concrete deck for the new bridge. Both north-and southbound traffic will be detoured around the area.
The operation will only take place on Saturday, weather permitting. No Sunday work is scheduled.
This work is part of a $154.8 million project to convert FM 1585 from a rural, two-lane roadway into Loop 88, a six-lane freeway with frontage roads, bridges, and ramps.
