The first full week of fall is here!  The weather is wanting to get cooler.  However, just because the season is changing doesn't mean road constructions stops.  Here are the areas you are going to want to avoid on your commutes this week.  These are the areas that can slow you down and make you late for work or other appointments.  Here's this week's lane closures from the Texas Department of Transportation.
I-27 frontage roads, expect continued lane closures in both directions at various locations from Loop 335 (Hollywood) to Rockwell for a seal-coat operation. Some of these lane closures may remain in place overnight.

US 87/287, expect lane and ramp closures southbound from Amarillo Creek to Loop 335 for paving. Ramp closures will be periodic and temporary. This project will continue into mid-November.

Eastbound I-40 off ramp to Coulter Street will be closed into mid-November for a ramp-reversal project. Motorists wishing to exit eastbound I-40 to Coulter Street will need to take the Loop 335 (Soncy) exit and continue on the eastbound frontage road to Coulter. Motorists on the eastbound I-40 frontage road will still be able to access eastbound I-40 between Loop 335 (Soncy) and Coulter Street.

Spur 591, expect lane closures on Monday, Sept. 28 for patching.

Loop 335, expect lane closures eastbound between River Road and Glenn Street on Tuesday and Wednesday, Sept. 29 and 30 for patching.

Loop 335, expect lane closures westbound at Eastern Street on Thursday, Oct. 1 for patching.

Business I-40 (Amarillo Boulevard), expect lane closures from Fannin Street to Polk Street for an ADA ramp project.

I-40 at Loop 335 (Lakeside), the eastbound and westbound exit ramps from I-40 to Loop 335 will be closed during the daytime hours for an intersection-improvement project. Alternate exits will be posted.

The Texas Department of Transportation reminds you to slow down in work zones.

So as you head off to work tomorrow morning, make sure you avoid these areas so that you aren't late to work or getting your kids to school.
