HALTOM CITY — More closures are coming this week on Interstate 35W and Loop 820 in north Tarrant County.

We know that motorists are frustrated by the delays and detours. So in an effort to help out, here's what you need to know about the North Tarrant Express project.

Lane closures this week

First, what you need to know right now:

Loop 820 will be a challenging road to travel after hours for the next couple of days. All eastbound lanes of Loop 820 will be closed from 9 p.m. Monday to 5 a.m. Tuesday at the I-35W interchange. Traffic will be routed to Meacham Boulevard.

Also, traffic trying to get from I-35W to Loop 820 will be affected. All direct connectors from northbound and southbound I-35W will be closed, and traffic there will be directed to Meacham Boulevard, too.

The construction will also have a daytime impact. All lanes of the southbound I-35W frontage road will be closed from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday from Great Southwest Parkway to Gemini Place (near the Cracker Barrel restaurant). Traffic in that area will be redirected to Mark IV Parkway.
