CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — A significant portion of Interstate-37 near downtown will close tomorrow as construction continues on the New Harbor Bridge project in Corpus Christi.

The northbound lanes of I-37 from North Tancahua to the Crosstown Interchange will be closed starting tomorrow and will remain closed until fall 2024.

Drivers coming from downtown, the SEA District or the Bayfront will be detoured onto the frontage road during the closure. Motorists can re-enter I-37 at the Port Avenue intersection.
