CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — The new Leopard Street overpass will permanently reopen on Friday.
The TxDOT project, which was torn up and re-built as part of the new Harbor Bridge Project, took two years to complete.
What was once a standard, ground-level street is now a bridge that passes over drivers cloverleafing from northbound Interstate 37 onto the Crosstown Expressway.
The street also features four newly constructed lanes, new sidewalks in each direction, and underground drainage.
