Major highways will see widening and other cosmetic improvements.

Under TxDOT's newly approved 2024 Unified Transportation Program (UTP) which contains $142 billion for infrastructure improvements, major San Antonio highways, including Loop 1604, are set for improvements. 

"Through this record transportation investment project, the State of Texas will further improve roadway congestion and safety to meet the growing needs of Texans in our large metros, rural communities, and everywhere in between," Abbott said in press release.
