If you planned to drive along I35 through Belton or Salado Thursday night, we recommend seeking an alternative route, as some north and southbound lanes will be closed as construction crews work overnight.

The left two northbound lanes of I35 from Thomas Arnold Road to FM 2484 (starting at mile marker 285) in Salado will be closed from 7PM Thursday to 7AM Friday for pavement finishing.

Meanwhile, the right lane of southbound I35 from Tahuaya Road to Amity Road (starting at mile marker 289) just north of Salado will close from 9PM  to 7 AM as a pavement joint is installed.

The Amity Road ramp near Mile Marker 287 north of Salado will also close from 9PM to 7AM.

In Belton, the left two northbound lanes of I35 from Loop 121 to US 190 (starting at mile marker 292) will be closed from 9PM to 7AM for a pavement joint installation.

On the southbound side, the I35 entrance ramp at Shanklin Road near mile marker 290 will be closed from 9PM to 7AM.
