Marbach Road Gap Project to Finally Connect West San Antonio | Bexar County Infrastructure

For years, drivers along Marbach Road west of Loop 1604 have hit a frustrating dead end. That’s finally changing. Bexar County has approved a $2.4 million infrastructure project to connect a 250-yard gap that’s caused detours and congestion for decades. 

Why This Matters for San Antonio 

West San Antonio continues to see growth with new subdivisions and schools near Loop 1604. Connecting this key stretch improves access for residents, emergency vehicles, and commuters—strengthening one of the city’s fastest-growing corridors. 

Real Estate Impact 

Improved infrastructure often leads to increased property values. Homeowners along Marbach Road can expect smoother commutes and stronger resale value as more buyers look for homes with convenient access to major highways.
