Rapid Growth in North Texas Leads to Added Lanes on I-20 By Chuck Harvey CEG CORRESPONDENT

ramps, reconstruction and reconfiguration of the intersections at Robinson Road and Carrier Parkway, reconstruction and reconfiguration of a section of Westchase Drive south of I-20, construction of U-turns at Carrier Parkway and Belt Line Road and construction of sidewalks along I20 frontage roads and a section of Robinson Road and Carrier Parkway.

Spurred by fast growth in northern Texas, crews are adding frontage lanes to I-20 in Grand Prairie, Texas.

Work has been underway on the project for several years. Studies found that in two years, the city’s population will increase eight percent. According to the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), the I-20 project between Belt Line

Road and State Highway 161 is a “high priority,” project that will create greater access for drivers. The 2.3-mi. long project is scheduled to be finished in 2023. Crews are currently working on three frontage lanes in both directions. see I-20 page 18
