All the San Antonio street work expected to end within the next year
If you live or work within the major metro area of San Antonio then you have probably run into traffic or closed streets because of these ongoing street projects around the Alamo City. A lot of these projects, if not done by TxDOT, are funded by the 2017-2022 multimillion-dollar bond, so the City of San Antonio tracks the projects on its website. Some projects are expected to continue into 2025.
Cumulatively the $254.7 million has been spent on bond-funded street work The website says that there are 10 bond-funded street projects across multiple districts that are “on time” to finish within the next year. This includes projects that are expected to finish before the year is out in December.
Here are the projects expected to finish within the next year.
