The President George Bush Turnpike Western Extension, also known as State Highway 161, will provide a new, approximately 11.5-mile link in the growing loop around Dallas. The corridor consists of the tolled PGBT WE main lanes and the SH 161 frontage roads. Phase 1, which includes the frontage roads from Carrier Parkway to Interstate 20, is complete and open to traffic.  Phases 2 and 3 consist of the tolled main lanes between SH 183 and I-30 and are also open to traffic. The final phase of the project, Phase 4, extends from I-30 to I-20 in Grand Prairie and is expected to open to traffic in the fourth quarter of 2012.

Ongoing Construction  

  

In downtown Grand Prairie, the south side of the Jefferson Street bridge is anticipated to open by mid-April. Access from the bridge to both north- and southbound frontage roads is scheduled to open at the same time.

 

Concrete decks are being poured in several locations along the construction area of the PGBT Western Extension, including on the Interstate 20 direct connectors, Robinson Road bridges at I-20 and Warrior Trail at State Highway 161.

 

Steel and concrete beams are being erected along both the I-30 and I-20 corridors within the project area.

 

Traffic shifts and detours are being implemented as needed to perform these activities. See a list of daily closures.
