Road closures you should avoid this weekend

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- Road closures could slow down your weekend plans.

Expect a total closure of I-45 North Freeway northbound from Franklin to Hogan/Crockett Street as the Texas Department of Transportation, or TxDOT, will be doing bridge maintenance work in the area removing an old electrical conduit and illumination light.

The closure starts at 9 p.m. Friday to 5 a.m. Sunday, Aug. 1.

Traffic will be forced to IH-10 eastbound or westbound.
