WESTBOUND US 62, TEXAS — A major traffic incident has forced the closure of the left lane on westbound US-62 from 74 feet east of FM-1585 to over two miles west of the intersection. The lane closure stretches between mile markers 316 and 310, leading to significant delays for westbound travelers.
Traffic management crews are on scene directing motorists, and an official detour has been established to guide vehicles around the affected section of the highway.
TxDOT officials project that clearance operations will continue until approximately 11:30 AM on November 5, 2026, depending on the progress of on-site recovery efforts.
Commercial truck drivers and local motorists should adjust travel schedules or seek alternative routes to avoid bottleneck conditions. We will update this report as more information becomes available.
