The Texas Department of Transportation's mammoth $2.1 billion Southeast Connector Project is hammering away at progress and, as a result, drivers will need to brace for significant overnight closures on both directions of I-820 come January 11.
Every Friday brings fresh updates from the City of Arlington, keen on keeping the public looped in on the seismic shifts happening on I-20, I-820, and US 287. These stretches knit together the east and southeast of Tarrant County with the central parts, a bond they say will ultimately ease congestion, amp up safety, and polish efficiency for the Metroplex's weary travelers. Residents looking for direct intel can flag their inbox for alerts by submitting their details on the Southeast Connector Project website.
Here's what we know: Southbound lanes on I-820 will shutter at Meadowbrook Drive, and Northbound will do likewise at Lancaster Avenue. These closures are nocturnal, folded into the night of January 11, so plan your evening voyages accordingly. As the closures are subject to the whims of weather and scheduling, make a beeline for the project's website for the most current detour maps and closure lists.
