Due to possible inclement weather on Friday April 29, the construction dates could change, or the work may be postponed. Updates will be available at www.northtarrantexpress.com, Facebook (North Tarrant Express) and Twitter (@ntexpress).

The work is part of the $1.4 billion North Tarrant Express 35W project. The project includes roadway currently ranked sixth on the state’s most congested roadway list. That segment runs along 6.5 miles of I-35W from north of Interstate 30 to north of Loop 820, including the I-35W/I-820 interchange in Fort Worth. The project includes the reconstruction of main lanes and the addition of TEXpress managed lanes.
