I-35 Southbound Mainlanes Closed Wednesday night 8/5/15 near Salado 

Salado — I-35 southbound mainlanes between Belton and Salado, from Exit #290 (Shanklin Rd.) to Exit #286 (FM 2484) will be closed from 7 pm Wednesday night, August 4th, until 7 am Thursday morning, August 5th. All I-35 southbound traffic will detour to the southbound frontage road, and re-enter the I-35 mainlanes south of FM 2484, as the contractor moves concrete barriers and prepares pavement for an upcoming traffic shift.

Local traffic is encouraged to seek alternate routes. Long delays are expected.

Below are two alternate routes that we at Salado Village Voice recommend.
