re: I-10 between LA state line and Beaumont

Fact is, the entire stretch from orange to SA needed widening. It’s a massive job.

My main issue with the orange is the extremely suspect construction sequencing and Traffic Control Plans (TCPs). They are hazardous as Hell. The WB section just past the welcome center right after you enter TX is straight up dangerous as a MF. I cannot fathom WTH they allowed the contractor to put it in as it is. I almost lost my boat coming home after a Hackberry run.

It wasn’t/isn’t just adding lanes in each direction, rather in large sections it has been a complete rebuild.

I know all the construction in TX is a bummer but they are proactive and deal with more traffic (tearing up roads) than you can fathom.

I’ll also be thrilled with the Gulf Freeway is complete. I see a light at the end of the tunnel finally!!!!
