San Antonio Marathon

Alamo Traffic Advisory
As construction continues in and around the Alamo, vehicle access is closed to ensure public safety and support the progress of ongoing work.
These restrictions are part of the broader effort to transform the Alamo District into a pedestrian-focused space, creating a safer and more welcoming environment for visitors in the years to come.
New Wayfinding Map
Our Alamo Plaza Wayfinding Map provides visitors with clear and comprehensive navigation through the area. You can download a copy of the map. Physical copies can be obtained at the Alamo Welcome Center.
