Purpose: TxDOT is holding a public hearing to present proposed improvements along I-45 from the Walker/Montgomery County line to SH 19 in Huntsville. The proposed project widens I-45 to improve safety, reduce congestion and enhance freight mobility along the corridor.
   
Description: Proposed improvements include:
  • Replace existing mainlane pavement with new pavement
  • Widen to six travel lanes (three north and three south) with a center concrete traffic barrier instead of a grass median
  • Extend and replace drainage structures
  • Replace all existing bridges
  • Add a new direct connection from northbound I-45 to northbound SH 19
  • Reconstruct ramps to current standards
  • Reconstruct frontage roads and crossroads adjacent to new ramps and interchanges
No additional right of way is required and construction is estimated to begin in 2016. Please see the I-45 South Walker County project page for more information.
