Construction continues on an additional lane in each direction of the Sam Rayburn Tollway between Denton Tap Road in Coppell and US 75 in McKinney to keep up with traffic demand.

The additional lanes along the 26-mile route are being added to the inside median to reduce disruption to existing traffic.

This spring, work on intersection bridges was done at Castle Hills Drive and Standridge Drive and at Huffines Boulevard and Marchant Boulevard. Bridge work is ongoing at the intersections of Denton Tap Road, MacArthur Boulevard, Lake Vista Drive and Hebron Parkway, according to the latest report from the North Texas Tollway Authority.

Timeline: January 2019-December 2021
