W-129 Westheimer Bridge Construction Alert:
The Harris County Flood Control District announced that on March 10, 2013, it will close two lanes of the Westheimer Road Bridge located just east of Mid Lane inside West Loop 610 in the Galleria area. Traffic will be limited to one lane in each direction for up to one month while the 50-year-old bridge is demolished and replaced. If their ultimate destination is not in the area, motorists are encouraged to avoid the area while the bridge is under construction or to use an alternate route. Possible alternate routes include West Loop 610, Memorial Drive, San Felipe Street, Richmond Avenue or Kirby Drive. Signs announcing the lane closure dates have been installed in the area. Motorists are encouraged to be alert, to pay attention to all posted street and lane closures and to take an alternate route.
