We are devastated by the horrible incident that unfolded today in East El Paso. If you’d like to help, you can donate blood. Vitalant at 424 S Mesa Hills is open until 5PM today.
Major flooding in west El Paso. Paisano at Exec is at a standstill; Brentwood and Mesa is chaos; I-10 before Exec is slow going. Just in: reports of a sink hole on I-10 at Sunland Park.
The @TxDOT El Paso District now has a third life-sized creature created by maintenance staff from previously hit orange barrels. A new rattlesnake joins Safe-T-Rex and Work Zone Willy in reminding drivers of road safety. What do you think its name should be?
DESERT WATERFALLS‼️
This was the scene on FM-170 at Big Hill near Tee Pees picnic area in Lajitas yesterday afternoon. 📸
Some of our @TxDOT Presidio crew was out with a loader and plow working rockslides and cleaning creeks on FM-170, Lajitas to Redford. 👷🏻♂️
Two views of Transmountain: one at 6AM by crew member on site, one at 7AM captured by TxDOT camera. We were up all night to monitor road conditions across the six westernmost counties of TX, plowing and treating where necessary. Y’all stay safe - at home if possible.
WEATHER ALERT!
We have snow flurries on Transmountain. ❄️The wind is blowing, nothing sticking. Air temp 37 degrees at the gap. Please remember to drive to weather conditions, watch for any @TxDOT crews as we are monitoring conditions. Road conditions: drivetexas.org. 🛣️
