Texas State Highway Loop 1604
Loop 1604, also known as the Charles W. Anderson Loop, is a highway loop that encircles San Antonio, Texas, spanning approximately 95.6 miles (153.9 km). Its outer loop encircles most of San Antonio and its inner loop, Interstate 410, connects with many highways in the city. Loop 1604 began as a two-lane highway and has been upgraded to a four-lane freeway along its northern stretches. The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) is planning to add new lanes between SH 151 and I-10 East as toll lanes. An environmental impact statement study is currently underway to determine other improvements needed.
