Westlake Drive/Cedar Street

This project consists of improvements to the intersections at Westlake Drive and Cedar Street, including removing the traffic signals on the Loop 360 mainlanes and adding an underpass (where the mainlanes go under the cross street) at both locations.

New traffic pattern

Westlake Drive east/west crossover at Loop 360 intersection is closed for excavation and bridge construction. Westlake Drive is a right in/right out only. The Loop 360 mainlanes remain open. The closure is anticipated to last approximately six months, weather permitting.

  • Drivers traveling westbound on Westlake Drive will U-turn at Cedar Street to access southbound Loop 360. detour map 
  • Drivers traveling eastbound on Westlake Drive will U-turn at new signals installed across the Shell Refuel Gas station to access northbound Loop 360. detour map
  • New protected U-turn located north of Waymaker Way will provide additional access to southbound Loop 360 without driving north to Cedar Street. Bold Ruler U-turn provides additional northbound Loop 360 access south of Westlake Drive. detour map
