Senator Nelson spoke at a Feb. 17 groundbreaking for the long-awaited DFW Connector transportation improvements. Every person every business and every inch of this Metroplex is connected in some way to this interchange said Senator Nelson.
Construction of the 8.4-mile initial phase of the 14.4-mile project will be complete by 2014. During construction every effort will be made to keep motorists moving by building temporary pavement to shift traffic lanes scheduling most lane closures at night and keeping all lanes open during peak travel times.
Motorists can monitor construction along state highways 121 and 114 as the project progresses.
