The North Tarrant Express project features 13.3 miles of NTE TEXpress Lanes on I-820 (Northeast Loop) and SH-121/183 (Airport Freeway), and another 10.1 miles of NTE 35W TEXpress Lanes on I-35W. In total, the North Tarrant Express project consists of 23.4 miles of TEXpress Lanes in Tarrant County to increase the capacity of the highways, reduce traffic congestion and give drivers more control over their daily commute. After nearly four years of construction, the first two segments of the NTE TEXpress Lanes were completed on October 4, 2014, approximately nine months ahead of schedule. The North Tarrant Express features upgraded general highway lanes and expanded continuous frontage roads on Northeast Loop 820, SH-121/183 Airport Freeway and I-35W. Plus four TEXpress Lanes have been added to the middle of the corridors. The NTE TEXpress Lanes connect to TxDOT’s SH-183 TEXpress Lanes (Industrial Boulevard).
These two expansive reconstruction projects are successfully alleviating traffic congestion along two of the busiest highway corridors in the North Texas and the state, with more than 200,000 cars traveling the stretch daily.
