Fort Worth Roads: Lane Closures & World Cup Prep

0:00It's March 29th. You're listening to Dallas News today, AI-powered local news. I'm Corey with the story. Drivers in downtown for worth, brace for lane closures and traffic jams on East Weatherford Street and East Beltnaf Street between Peacons and Nichols. Starting March 30th, crews will shut down two lanes on each, leaving just one open to repair, crumbling concrete and make the road safer. This high traffic fix aims to wrap up before the FIFA World Cup ramps up crowds and chaos downtown. The city wants reliable streets when the world's watching. Rush hour commuters will hit the delays hardest, with back ups slowing your roll through the heart of the city. Pedestrians might notice detours too, but drivers take the biggest hit. Work hits East Weatherford first from March 30th through May 8th, then jumps to East Beltnaf May 11th to June 5th. It pauses June 8th through July 19th for the World Cup, picks back up July 20th and finishes by July 31st. Turn alternate routes and check apps to stay ahead of the gridlock.
