INSTALLATION OF OVERHEAD LINES REQUIRES SUNDAY ROAD CLOSURE

The project requires rolling traffic stops on the east and westbound lanes of SW Loop 410 in San Antonio’s southwest sector.

February 2, 2024 (SAN ANTONIO) – CPS Energy is working to improve the quality and safety of aging overhead electrical lines on the southwest side of town at the intersection of Old Pearsall Road and SW Loop 410.  

The Old Pearsall Road project will involve the installation of a new overhead electric line crossing Old Pearsall Road and SW Loop 410. The work will take place on February 4, 2024, from 6:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m., weather permitting. CPS Energy’s contractor crews, Chain Electric Overhead Construction, will be working on this project. No customer outages are anticipated.

Blue Shield will provide traffic control on the east and westbound lanes of SW Loop 410 resulting in eight rolling traffic stops lasting up to 15 minutes.

Drivers are asked to find alternative routes and avoid the area, if possible. CPS Energy reminds drivers to Move Over or Slow Down, per State law, for crew and driver safety.
