U.S. Route 90 (US 90) is a major east–west highway in the U.S. state ofTexas with large portions of it runningconcurrently with I-10. US 90 begins atBus. I-10 inVan Horn, travels throughSan Antonio andHouston, and continues on into the state ofLouisiana.
US 90 begins inVan Horn at an intersection withBus. I-10 andSH 54. US 90 travels in a southeastern direction towardsMarfa where it starts an overlap withUS 67. US 90 travels south and runs parallel to theUS-Mexico Border near theRio Grande. US 90 crosses theAmistad Reservoir then runs throughDel Rio. US 90 turns right and runs east towardsBrackettville. US 90 runs throughUvalde andMedina counties. US 90 then arrives inSan Antonio where it serves as a major freeway. Multiple stack interchanges are under construction to gain access in and out of the freeway along the intersections at Loop 1604 and I-410. Further, the highway has a major junction with TX-151 as it continues eastward towards the city's inner Westside until its interchange withI-10 andI-35 at the southwest corner ofDowntown.
East of Downtown San Antonio, US 90multiplexes with I-10. This overlap ends inSeguin, and continues where the two highways continually cross each other en route toHouston. US 90 once againduplexes with I-10 east ofColumbus briefly separating nearBrookshire and continue overlapping fromKaty all the way to Houston. AtI-610 east of Houston, US 90 becomes independently known as the Crosby Freeway.
The Crosby Freeway from east of Beltway 8 to east of Runneburg Road inCrosby, was constructed in the early 1990s and opened to traffic in 1992. After several delays, construction work on the inner section of the freeway began in 2006 and was opened to traffic in January 2011.[1]The western terminus of the Crosby Freeway connects to the I-610 and I-10 interchange via two freeway ramps:
The previous interchange was a four-levelstack interchange though the new interchange is not a full five-level stack.
Because of funding constraints, two sections of the freeway inside Beltway 8 were not built to full freeway standards: a half-mile section over Greens Bayou and an approximately mile-long section east of Normandy Street. As of December 2012, only thefeeder roads have been constructed, with space reserved in the median for future freeway mainlanes. Unlike most new freeway extensions in the Houston area built in recent decades, the Crosby Freeway is not tolled. Also unlike most of Houston's existing freeways and tollways, the Crosby Freeway does not have continuousfeeder roads.
The Crosby Freeway has four to six mainlanes for its entire length.
US 90 (known as theCrosby Freeway) heads northeast leaving Houston and ends its freeway status inCrosby. US 90 then continues traveling east throughBeaumont and is locally known as College Street, passes by Baptist Hospital Beaumont and meets I-10 at a T-interchange. It then passes throughOrange and has a business route (Business US 90-Y). It then crosses theSabine River intoLouisiana towardsLake Charles. With the exception of an 11-mile-long (18 km) section with only two (briefly three) lanes betweenLiberty andDevers, US 90 has at least four lanes betweenCrosby and the Louisiana state line.
