The 35W interstate highway corridor, which is positioned right in the heart of Fort Worth and Tarrant County, is a major north/south route for local commuters, the movement of goods and services, business and recreational travelers, and those simply making a quick trip across town, along with regional, interstate and international trade traffic. The newly reconstructed, twenty-first century, state-of-the-art project features fully rebuilt main highway lanes and frontage roads, along with two new TEXpress “managed” Lanes in each direction, allowing drivers additional options and ease of travel.

The NTE 35W project has been open since 2018 and fully operational to the traveling public. The newly designed and safer corridor connects directly with the NTE TEXpress Lanes along I-820 (north loop) and Airport Freeway (121/183) through the mid-cities (Haltom City, North Richland Hills, Hurst, Euless and Bedford), which opened in 2014.

The new NTE 35W project (Alliance Connector Segment), which began construction in 2020 officially opened in June 2023. The project was completed three months ahead of schedule and features the latest technology of completely modernized infrastructure and improves capacity, safety and mobility throughout the entire corridor. The Alliance Connector Segment of the NTE 35W project extends the managed lane corridor to the north side of Alliance Airport at Eagle Parkway. The project includes reconstructed main highway lanes along the 6.7 mile segment, expanded frontage roads and the addition of two managed lanes in each direction.

Connecting downtown Fort Worth and the Alliance development into Denton County, this segment helps create a safer, faster and more reliable movement of people, goods and services.
