The North Tarrant Express (NTE) project is a total highway reconstruction of the Interstate 820 (I-820) and State Highway 121/State Highway 183 (SH 121/SH 183, Airport Freeway) corridor between I-35W and Industrial Boulevard in Northeast Tarrant County, Texas. The NTE and the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) anticipate the new highway system will relieve traffic congestion, improve safety on its roadways and have integrated plans for the anticipated traffic growth in one of the country’s fastest developing regions.[2] When the improvements are completed, the $2.5 billion North Tarrant Express will have upgraded main highway lanes, continuous frontage roads, and 13.3 miles (21.4 km) of newly added tolled managed lanes (TEXpress Lanes).[3]
Construction began in late 2010 and was scheduled to be completed before the end of 2014, at least six months ahead of schedule.[4]
Also included in the North Tarrant Express' scope is the 10 miles (16 km) of I-35W from north of I-30 (Downtown Fort Worth) to the I-820 interchange. The project will provide over $1.5 billion of needed infrastructure to the Fort Worth area.[5]
The NTE project is completely reconstructing and upgrading existing general highway lanes. It is also improving and expanding frontage lanes to double the existing capacity. Moreover, adding TEXpress managed lanes, or tolled express lanes, is designed for commuters seeking the most reliable and time-saving trip. The variable tolls are based on travel time with a minimum goal to maintain a 50 mph traffic flow on the highway; motorists can choose to use general highway lanes or tolled express lanes depending on their traveling objectives.[6]
