Dallas Horseshoe Project Will Soon Give Lucky Motorists Better Access to One of City's Busiest Roadways

Beginning Sunday, motorists will have a new way to access one of Dallas's busiest roadways.Drivers will be able to access Woodall Rodgers Freeway new ways along Interstate 35E, eastbound Interstate 30 and both Reunion Boulevard and eastbound Commerce Street.Traffic coming from northbound I-35E will now use Exit 428 toward Interstate 45/U.S. Highway 75. The exit, located just after the Houston Street Viaduct, will continue to be used to access Reunion Boulevard and Commerce Street. The old exit, located north of the mixmaster, will be closed. Drivers along eastbound I-30 who want to access Woodall Rodgers can breathe a sigh of relief. They will no longer have to merge onto northbound I-35E, but instead will now use Exit 45A toward I-45/U.S. 75 and Commerce Street.Finally, drivers from eastbound Commerce Street and Reunion Boulevard will head north on Riverfront Boulevard to access Woodall Rodgers.This is the latest in a series of changes as part of the $800 million Dallas Horseshoe Project, which is expected to be completed this summer. The project, which started in 2013, is designed to improve traffic through downtown through expanding, repaving and adding new bridges and roadways along I-30 and I-35E.  Continue reading...
