Dallas North Tollway Closure: Plan Ahead This Weekend

0:00It's March 27. Welcome to Dallas News Today, powered by AI. Drivers using the Dallas-North Tollway from Interstate 635 should plan ahead this weekend. The North Texas Tollway Authority will close the Westbound I-635 direct connector ramp to the Northbound Tollway on Sunday March 29th from 3am to 3pm for essential pavement repairs. This maintenance helps keep one of North Texas's busiest roads safe and smooth. Such work happens overnight, but this closure runs through much of the day, affecting more than just early drivers. Traffic from this popular North Dallas route was shift to fronted roads in signalized intersections not built for heavy loads. That means backups on those paths and added slowdowns on Westbound I-635 as drivers adjust. Officials have set up a clear detour. Exit Westbound I-635 at Dallas Parkway over Inwood Road, turn right and follow signs to rejoin them.
