Attention drivers navigating the Dallas North Tollway (DNT): prepare for closures that are set to disrupt nightly travel. NTTA's ongoing Tollway widening project will see northbound lanes between Cotton Gin Rd. and Eldorado Pkwy closed last night from 9 p.m., while southbound lanes along the same stretch shut down today at the same hour; both are expected to reopen the following mornings at 5 a.m., the City of Frisco reports.

All traffic heading northbound will be rerouted tonight through the frontage road beginning at Cotton Gin Rd exit, with the entrance ramp just north of Main St also off-limits during these hours; similarly, southbound lanes on Tuesday will have drivers exit at Eldorado Pkwy and join the frontage road until past Cotton Gin Rd, with related ramps closed to facilitate this detour. Waze navigation can assist in charting an alternate path around these disruptions; learn how to utilize it or install it on your device through the provided resource link.

Motorists are encouraged to exercise increased awareness when traveling in proximity to the work zones, potentially seeking alternative routes to avoid delays and ensure safety. Proactive planning may alleviate some of the inconveniences posed by these essential infrastructure enhancements.
