Eastbound I-10 Main Lanes Stay Closed Between FM 78 and SH 123 Until Noon Saturday
A full closure of the eastbound I-10 main lanes east of San Antonio — from near FM 78 to SH 123, mile markers 608 to 610 — runs through Saturday morning and is not set to lift until about noon, the last Halloween-weekend closure still standing in daylight.
Most of the Halloween weekend's highway work is a night job, but one closure runs into Saturday's daylight. All eastbound main lanes of Interstate 10 are closed from mile marker 608 to mile marker 610 — between Rio Nogales Drive and State Highway 123, roughly half a mile east of FM 78 — for road construction operations, according to the TxDOT closure listing read this cycle. TxDOT crews began the full closure at 9:00 p.m. on Friday, October 30, and the roadway is estimated to remain blocked until approximately 12:00 p.m. on Saturday, October 31.
The closure points east, toward Seguin, which makes it the weekend board's outlier: the rest of this weekend's verified work sits on the city's west and north sides and runs overnight — the US 90 striping closures in both directions between I-410 and Loop 1604 until about 5 a.m. Sunday (SQ-20261030-076), the Loop 1604 and I-10 interchange frontage and mainlane closures nightly through Monday (SQ-20261030-069), and the SH 151 daytime ramp closures that resume Monday (SQ-20261031-005). The I-10 eastbound closure is the only one still holding main lanes at mid-morning Saturday.
For Saturday-morning drivers headed east, the practical instruction is to expect the detour pattern the listing implies — traffic carried around the two-mile work zone — and to budget extra time until the noon reopening. The listing names no change to the westbound lanes; the closure is eastbound only, and its noon end time is an estimate that moves with the work.
