Starting yesterday (Tuesday, July 22nd) at 9 PM, the northbound I-35E direct connector to southbound I-35W in Denton will close nightly from 9 PM to 5 AM through Tuesday, July 29. A signed detour will guide motorists, but delays are expected. TxDOT encourages drivers to use alternate routes and watch for new traffic patterns and construction crews as bridge work proceeds to enhance safety along the I-35 corridors

With a locked-in menu, renewed team spirit, and a focus on great service, they’re ready to welcome you. They’ll close early on Sunday, July 27 for team retraining and reopen Wednesday with a refreshed look and experience.
