The work is part of the $1.4 billion North Tarrant Express 35W project, which includes a section currently ranked sixth among the state’s most congested roadway list along 6.5 miles of I-35W from north of I-30 to north of I-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.
