183 North Mobility Project to Temporarily Close Exit to Steck Ave. on Southbound MoPac
Starting the week of Feb. 10th, and lasting approximately two to three months, the 183 North Mobility Project will be closing the second exit to Steck Avenue from southbound Loop 1 (MoPac) to facilitate construction of operational improvements to the U.S. 183 and MoPac interchange coming as a part of the 183 North Mobility Project.
The project team will be closing this exit continuously (24 hours a day) to complete the necessary work in this area. Crews will work as quickly and safely as possible to reopen on time or ahead of schedule. Detour routes and alternate exits will be available. There will be on-road signage present to help guide drivers.
Drivers are encouraged to slow down and pay close attention to the construction signage.
Please keep in mind that construction is dependent on weather, as well as a variety of other logistical factors. Activities and schedules are always subject to change.
The below graphic details alternate routes for drivers, and project updates and other travel information is continuously updated at the project website: www.183North.com.
Please note, there are still other ongoing lane closures for work that will happen as a part of this project. Upcoming temporary lane closures can be found on the 183 North Mobility Project website here. You can also follow the project via X (formerly Twitter) @183North.

About the 183 North Mobility Project:
The 183 North Mobility Project aims to improve mobility, reduce congestion and provide more reliable travel times for transit and emergency responders along the nine-mile stretch of US 183 between SH 45 North and MoPac. The project includes the construction of two express lanes in each direction and the addition of a general-purpose lane to bring the number of non-tolled lanes to four in each direction. Express lane direct connectors will be constructed with MoPac to the south. The project also includes operational improvements to southbound MoPac, new shared use path connections, new sidewalks and cross-street connections for bicycles/pedestrians. When completed, those looking to bypass traffic congestion have a choice to use the 183 North Express Lanes. Drivers who prefer not to pay a toll will still have the option to use the improved non-tolled general-purpose lanes.
