Great pics on the Marsha Sharp Freeway during the construction process! Currently, construction is going on at IH-27 @ 4th Street for the direct connection ramps on IH-27 onto Marsha Sharp Freeway and connection ramps onto Marsha Sharp Freeway onto IH-27! The Marsha Sharp Freeway is COMPLETE from Avenue Q, southwestward towards Loop 289! It would be great for you to add the new portions on to the website, and also Loop 289 is adding an overpass on Northwest Loop 289 at Slide Road. Although I haven’t been to Lubbock in 4 months or so, there should be some progress by now. Thanks!

I hope we can see even more pictures, Joe. Do you have more to share soon? I also want to see if you or someone else can get some pics of the new traffic cameras and dynamic message signs on Loop 289, and if so, can you get them? Thanks, folks, if you can.

I like the pics. I myself have been taking pictures of the freeway as its being built and working on a little project of my own to document the various stages. It looks like the Loop 289 and Marsha Sharp interchange is about 98 percent complete and I expect it to be open sometime soon hopefully with in the next couple of months or even less!

That is amazing that the finished portion that’s there is already being driven on. Wow! Can you get some more shots from that location? Hope you can also get other pics from the rest of the city, too. We need to do an analysis of all of Lubbock’s freeways in its network, and then gather them up.

Excellent job with the photos. Bring some more on! As for as Loop 289 being brought to interstate standards, I private call it Loop 427. That would be great to have in place. But keep up the good work. Can’t wait to see more!

thanks for the photos It can be interesting to compare with these pictures of the Marsha Sharp freeway from 2006 to see how the construction progressed on this site http://www.houstonfreeways.com/modern/2006-05-28_lubbock_82-62_construction.aspx
