Work to Begin Next Week on Another DNT Improvement Project

In May 2015, contractors for NTTA began work on the first of several major improvement projects along the Dallas North Tollway and President George Bush Turnpike. Later this month, the next project along the DNT gets underway.

Beginning the evening of Monday, March 28, drivers traveling on the DNT from just south of the Bush Turnpike will see construction crews restriping lanes, adding safety barriers and updating speed limit signage.

Safety is one of the most important missions of the NTTA. To keep drivers and construction crews safe on the DNT, one of the first changes drivers will see is the installations of new speed limit signs. The speed limit on the Tollway between the PGBT and Belt Line Road will be lowered. The current 60 mph speed limit between the Sam Rayburn Tollway and the Bush Turnpike will be extended south to Frankford Road. The speed limit between Frankford and Belt Line roads will be lowered to 55 mph. These enforceable speed limits will remain in place for the duration of construction.

Improvements being made in this area include:

● Restriping to add a fourth lane on southbound DNT between the Bush Turnpike and the Belt Line Road exit

● Restriping to extend the existing fourth lane on northbound DNT between Trinity Mills Road exit and the Bush Turnpike

● Overlaying a new surface on the existing pavement

● Relocating the existing light poles from the center median to the outside of the roadway

Weather permitting, this work along the DNT will be complete in early 2018.
