The right main lane of busy outbound I-10 between Boerne Stage Rd and Ralph Fair Rd on the far northwest side had to be closed this afternoon due to what TxDOT refers to as a pavement failure, News Radio 1200 WOAI reports..
TxDOT says the closure is due to safety reasons.
The closure is expected to last for the rest of the rest of the week. Engineers ate trying to come with alternatives. Westbound I-10 is only two lanes in that area, so a loss of lane could lead to rush hour gridlock.
