I45/242 Closure next 2 weekends

[YadaYadaJodi]

If you're headed out on a cruise out of Galveston/Houston this weekend and if you're driving on IH45 north of Houston (Conroe/Dallas, OK, etc.) please take a note of this freeway closure. Especially if you're on a 7 day cruise coming back the following weekend.

 

You may want to consider a detour in Conroe over to US59. Good luck!

Fortunately we are south of the closures.
