The McCullough Avenue exit that was closed last year after a fire damaged it is set to be demolished this week, with a rebuild commencing soon after.

An exit on Interstate 35 leading to downtown San Antonio will be demolished and rebuilt starting Monday. TxDOT is eyeing a fall completion date. The exit ramp leading to McCullough Avenue was seriously damaged in a fire around June 2023 that occurred on a column supporting the ramp, TxDOT spokeswoman Jennifer Serold said. Over the past year, safety inspectors determined that the off-ramp was unsafe for drivers and it should be demolished and rebuilt.
