Edit the Wiki Description (editing policy)
The project’s first segment, which is about 6.4 miles long, includes the reconstruction of the I-35 W and Loop 820 interchange and the reconstruction of Loop 820 from I-35 W to Highway 360 to include three free lanes and two tolled lanes.
The second segment stretches from Highway 183 to Highway 161, about 11.3 miles, and when reconstructed will include three free lanes and three toll lanes.
The third segment is broken into three sub-sections and stretches about 15 miles.
The third segment will expand I-35 W from Highway 170 near AllianceTexas south to the I-30 interchange. Four free lanes will be constructed from I-30 to Highway 287, and three constructed from Highway 287 to Highway 170.
Two of the three toll lanes will be added along the entire stretch of the third construction segment.
The fourth segment, about 2.7 miles in length, is the expansion of Loop 820 from the Northeast Mall interchange south to Randol Mill Road from its existing two to four lanes to five free lanes and one toll lane. [1]
This is a portion of the North Tarrant Express project. [2]
