Conroe HOV lanes to open for drivers as I-45 closures begin
The $2.6 million HOV lanes will span 17.6 miles between South Loop 336 in Conroe and FM 1960 in north Harris County.
Crews will create a dedicated lane in each direction for drivers traveling with at least one passenger onboard.
The lanes will be open 24-7, free of charge, according to the Texas Department of Transportation.
TxDOT expects the project to be completed in September and will open the lanes in two phases—
Once complete, drivers will be able to enter and exit the lanes at designated areas.
Unlike the existing HOV lane spanning from FM 1960 in to Houston, the new lane will not have physical barriers and will be open in both directions at all times.
