59/69 HOV Access Map Closure

The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) will close the I-69 Southwest Freeway HOV / HOT entrance and exit ramps at Westpark — located just under the interchange — on Feb. 23 at 9 p.m. as part of its I-610 West Loop / I-69 Southwest Freeway Interchange Project. The HOV entrance and exit ramps will remain closed for the duration of the construction project. 

Drivers can enter and exit the I-69 Southwest Freeway HOV / HOT just east of the interchange via Edloe or west of the interchange via METRO's Hillcroft Park & Ride.

The project is expected to take about five years to complete. Road closure information will be posted at www.houstontranstar.org. Follow @HOU610at69 on Twitter for updates and more on this project.
