We had previously announced that the NTTA had planned to close the Dallas North Tollway each weekend in June, but now they have changed that plan. This weekend the frontage roads will be closed and the main lanes will remain open. The DNT main lanes will need to be closed again on several future weekends and we will announce each closure when NTTA finalizes those dates. The closure announcement for this weekend is as follows:
The northbound and southbound Dallas Parkway frontage roads will be closed between Gaylord Parkway and SH 121 this weekend. The frontage roads will close at 10:00 p.m. Friday night, June 17, and remain closed throughout the weekend, June 18-19. They will reopen at 5:00 a.m. Monday morning, June 20. NTTA has provided the attached map of this closure and the detour routes.
Northbound Dallas Parkway will be closed between the southwest-bound SH 121 frontage road and the northbound DNT exit ramp to Gaylord Parkway. (The exit ramp to Gaylord Parkway will not be closed.) During this closure, northbound traffic on Dallas Parkway will be diverted onto the northeast-bound SH 121 frontage road to Parkwood Boulevard to continue their journey north. Detour signs will be posted.
Southbound Dallas Parkway will be closed between Gaylord Parkway and the northeast-bound SH 121 frontage road. During this closure, all southbound traffic will be directed to turn left onto Gaylord Parkway and use Parkwood Boulevard as a detour. Southbound traffic on the Dallas North Tollway will not be able to exit to SH 121 and should plan to use Legacy Drive or Parkwood Boulevard as an alternative route. Residents of Stonebriar Creek Estates will need to use their entrance on Legacy Drive. Customers of David McDavid Honda should approach the dealership using the southwest-bound SH 121 frontage road.
These road closures are part of NTTA's interchange construction project. Motorists are urged to use caution in the construction zone and to choose an alternate route in advance.

Traffic Switch on Lebanon Rd. Starting June 7
(June 6, 2011) Traffic on Lebanon Road will be switched to the other side of the road at Legacy Drive starting at 9:00 a.m. Tuesday, June 7. Traffic on east and westbound Lebanon Road will continue to be limited to one through lane in each direction, but all traffic will be shifted to the north side of the road. Traffic on Legacy Drive will continue to be limited to one through lane in each direction. This will allow the southwest quadrant of the intersection to be reconstructed.
Motorists are urged to use caution approaching the intersection of Legacy Drive and Lebanon Road as people become accustomed to the new traffic patterns within the shifted lanes.
This traffic switch is necessary to the intersection reconstruction project at Legacy Drive and Lebanon Road. As a result, the bump in the intersection will be corrected and additional through lanes and turn lanes will be built. Once the project is complete, all four directions of the intersection will have two left-turn lanes, three through lanes, and most will have a right-turn lane. For more detailed information about the scheduled completion of each phase of this project, visit the City website at: http://www.friscotexas.gov/projectsPrograms/Pages/DriveFrisco.aspx
