Parts of Dallas North Tollway to be closed overnight Friday

Dallas North Tollway (DNT) crews will close the Tollway between the DNT/President George Bush Turnpike (PGBT) interchange and Parker Road from 11 p.m. Friday Feb. 3 until 6 a.m. Saturday Feb. 4.

The closure will allow multiple crews to work on the Tollway, where they will remove overhead signs; install fencing; shift concrete barriers on the southbound main lanes; work on underpass lighting; and progress work on the direct-connector ramps.

Beginning at 11 p.m. Friday Feb. 3, crews will close all lanes of the Tollway between PGBT and Parker Road, including the direct-connector ramps from the PGBT to northbound DNT and southbound DNT to PGBT. Law enforcement will assist with the closing and be stationed at all entrance ramps through the closure to prevent drivers from entering the construction area.

Detours for drivers during the closure are as follows:

Southbound DNT detour: Motorists traveling on southbound DNT will take the Parker Road exit ramp and continue south on Dallas Parkway (the DNT frontage road.) You will be able to reenter the DNT using the entrance ramp south of Plano Parkway.

Northbound DNT detour: Motorists traveling on northbound DNT will take the Plano Parkway exit ramp and continue north on the frontage road. You will be able to reenter the DNT using the entrance ramp north of Parker Road.

East- and westbound PGBT to northbound DNT detour: Motorists will exit the PGBT at Midway Road and turn north on Midway Road and continue to Parker Road. Motorists will then make a right onto Parker Road and follow Parker Road to northbound Dallas Parkway, where they will turn left to enter the DNT.

Southbound DNT to east- and westbound PGBT detour: Motorists traveling on southbound DNT will take the Parker Road exit ramp and continue south on the frontage road to Frankford Road, where they will make a U-turn and enter northbound DNT. Motorists can then enter PGBT from the northbound DNT to PGBT direct-connector ramp.
