Road work and closures near your address

Austin's Transportation and Public Works Department publishes active roadway work zones — construction, lane closures, and related street work — as they're scheduled and reported, updated several times a day. It's useful information twice over: as context for what's happening near a specific address (is that noise outside a permitted project or something else?), and as a practical heads-up before a trip, since a work zone that started this morning rarely makes it into a map app by evening.

This tool shows the roadway work zones the City has published near an address or street, each linking back to the City's own record. Coverage depends entirely on what Transportation and Public Works reports through this specific dataset — it's a solid, frequently updated picture of major work zones, but it isn't guaranteed to capture every utility cut or short-notice closure a crew starts the same day.

Frequently asked questions

What counts as a "roadway work zone" in this data? Construction and closure activity that Austin's Transportation and Public Works Department logs against a specific street segment or area — this typically covers larger, planned work rather than every minor or same-day street event.

How current is this information? The source dataset is updated multiple times per day by the City, and we show the retrieval time next to the results rather than a generic "recently updated" label, so you can judge freshness for yourself.

Does this include sidewalk or utility work, not just road construction? Sometimes, depending on how the City categorizes a given project in its own system — but this dataset is not a complete record of every utility or sidewalk activity in Austin. For anything time-sensitive, the City's own current traffic and closures page is the most complete source.

Methodology

Sourced from the City of Austin's Roadway Work Zones dataset (qyfh-gwei, Transportation and Public Works Department), which the City updates multiple times daily. Because this dataset reflects what's been logged rather than every possible street disruption, "no work zone on file near this address" means exactly that — nothing published in this dataset — not a guarantee that a street is clear.
