Street Closures
Motorists will be
diverted for street closures to accommodate the Houston Street Two
Step: Cattle Drive and Stroll events on Saturday, January 29,
2011.
Over 20,000 people are
expected to come see the annual San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo Kick-off
event, The Houston Street Two Step. The first step of the Two Step will feature
live cattle parading down Houston Street. In preparation for this component, Houston
Street will be closed from 10:45am until approximately 12:00pm from I-35 to 3rd
Street. Houston Street will re-open to vehicular traffic upon the
completion of the Cattle Drive at approximately 12:00pm.
The second part of the
Two Step event will include the Houston Street Stroll until 2pm and will
feature discounts from local businesses, children’s games, musical
entertainment, and raffle drawings. During the Stroll, which starts as soon as
the parade is over and ends at 2pm, Houston Street will be open as normal.
