Samantha Davies is here with traffic updates to know about if you’re driving through Grapevine this weekend. There could be delays due to a bridge demolition.
Both the northbound and southbound lanes of Texas 121 will be closed in Grapevine this weekend to allow for an overpass to be demolished.
Officials with the DFW Connector said the highway will be closed between Bass Pro Drive on the south and Stars and Stripes Way on the north to allow crews to demolish the Farm-to-Market 2499 bridge.
In addition to 121, Highway 26 will also be closed from Grapevine Mills Trail to FM 2499.
The closure will be in place from 8 p.m. Friday until 6 a.m. Monday.
Drivers are warned to find alternate routes. Those passing through the area will be detoured onto service frontage roads.
The work being done is part of the $371 million I-635/SH 121 Interchange project which will increase capacity and connectivity between I-635, SH 121, SH 26 and FM 2499.
