Construction crews will begin closing the U.S. highway exit 51 in Van Alstyne for overnight work starting Monday night at 8 p.m. The closure will remain in effect until 5 a.m. the following morning. This nightly restriction is scheduled to continue on a recurring basis until September 4.
Drivers traveling northbound will not be able to use the exit during these hours. Instead, they will need to continue driving north to access the next available exit ramp. The project involves construction activities that require the lane to be closed during these specific overnight windows.
The closure is part of a planned maintenance or improvement effort on the highway infrastructure. The specific nature of the construction work is not detailed in the available information. The schedule is fixed for the duration of the project, ending on the specified date in September.
Motorists are advised to plan their routes accordingly to avoid delays during the 8 p.m. to 5 a.m. window. The next exit north will serve as the alternative access point for those needing to leave the highway during the closure period. No other exits or routes are mentioned as alternatives in the provided details.
