It has been one of busiest traffic areas in the Rio Grande Valley causing congestion in the morning and evening rush hours.

The I-2/I-69C Interchange is undergoing full reconstruction in what will be considered one of the largest investments in the area.

The 7.8 mile project improvements include:

• Full reconstruction of the I-2/I-69C Interchange to include two-lane direct connectors in all four directions
• Reconstruction and/or widening of the I-2 general purpose lanes from six to eight lanes (four in each direction)
• Operational improvements including the reconfiguration of main lane ramps on I-2 from 2^nd Street to FM 2557 (S. Steward Rd) and improvements to the approaches and departures to and from the direct connectors

The Project limits will run along I-2 from just west of 2^nd Street to just east of FM 2557 and along I-69C from Nolana Loop to I-2.

Once completed, the new I-2/I-69C interchange will reduce travel time and improve mobility, safety and traffic operations.
