Drivers in Rockwall should brace for detours and potential delays as the Interstate 30 corridor improvement project prompts scheduled road closures and traffic shifts. According to a civic alert by Rockwall County, weather permitting, Horizon Road is slated to undergo a shift to new pavement at I-30, starting from 9 p.m. on July 30 until 5 a.m. the following morning.
Adding to the planned disruptions, all lanes of eastbound I-30 will be temporarily shut down for bridge removal beginning 9 p.m. on August 1 until 7 a.m. on August 2, redirecting traffic to detours. Correspondingly, westbound I-30 lanes are set to fully close and detour at Horizon Road from 9 p.m. on August 2 through 7 a.m. on August 3. Travelers are strongly advised to fact-check to ensure they have the latest updates on closures and to adjust their travel times accordingly.
Furthermore, thoroughfares on Horizon Road and Ridge Road will face closures affecting all through traffic. These are scheduled from 9 p.m. on August 1 to 7 a.m. on August 2, and again from the evening of August 2 to the morning of August 3. Residents can expect access between local streets and the frontage roads to be limited during these hours, impacting usual traffic flow and convenience.
