San Antonio begins switch back to Durango Boulevard

• The street had been known as César E. Chávez Boulevard since 2011, when City Council voted to rename Durango Boulevard in his honor.

• As of Wednesday, most signs east of South Flores Street to the Alamodome, where the road becomes Iowa Street, had been changed.

State of play: The city began work Monday to replace about 80 signs and expects to finish by the end of the month, Public Works spokesperson Nicholas Olivier tells Axios.

• Highway signs are expected to take six months to a year to design, fabricate and install in coordination with the Texas Department of Transportation, Olivier says.

The big picture: More than 18,000 people responded to a city survey on the potential name change, with 64% supporting a return to Durango Boulevard — including nearly 8 in 10 residents who live along the street.
