A portion of Interstate 27 will be closed early this week to allow law enforcement to continue investigating a deadly accident that occurred last month.

TxDOT will close the north and southbound lanes of I-27 between Regis and Drew Streets beginning at 1 p.m. Tuesday, April 22nd.

The closure will allow Texas DPS troopers to reconstruct the accident scene from March 26th of this year which resulted in the death of 47-year-old Vickie Jo Lozano of Plainview.

Lozano reportedly lost control of her SUV and rolled it. Lozano’s vehicle was the only one involved in the fatal wreck.

All I-27 traffic will be detoured onto the frontage roads.

The roadway is expected to reopen to traffic by 4 p.m. Tuesday.
