TxDOT is the lead agency proposing to upgrade Interstate 37 (I-37) from Redbird Lane to the U.S. Highway 77 (US 77) Interchange in Nueces and San Patricio Counties. The proposed project is approximately 2.3 miles long.

The proposed improvements include:

• Widening the I-37 mainlanes to provide four lanes in each direction with widened shoulders
• Replacing the bridges over the Nueces River with wider and higher bridges
• Improving vertical clearances within the project limits
• Reconfiguring entrance and exit ramps between the mainlanes and frontage roads

Additional right-of-way (ROW) would not be required for the proposed project. At this phase in development, it is anticipated that construction could begin in fall of 2020.
