I-10 San Jacinto Bridge Battered by Barges and Flooding
The I-10 San Jacinto River Bridge remains closed after barges struck supports. Water levels and barge movements delay full assessment. SH-225 is advised as alternate. About 123,000 vehicles cross daily. Barges carrying naphtha, ethylene glycol, lube oil, and soybean oil are lodged or grounded near the site, with four barges corralled for transport. Officials warn this is a worst-case barge strike scenario and coordinate with the EPA and Coast Guard to minimize environmental damage while assessing repairs. Local leaders press for a new bridge on I-10 to restore interstate commerce.
