Western Center Boulevard Closures Could Cause Delays

FORT WORTH (CBSDFW.COM) - Weekend construction on the eastbound lanes of  Western Center Boulevard at I-35W could cause traffic delays.

Traffic at the north Fort Worth intersection will be diverted to Basswood Boulevard and Riverside Drive.

New water line connections will go into place from Jan. 31 to Feb. 3, with weather permitting. The construction is part of the I-35W project.

The westbound lanes of Western Center Boulevard will remain open, and the I-35W main lanes will not be affected, according to a TxDOT spokesman.

"Access to local businesses will be maintained. This weekend closure will allow crews to expedite this work and minimize impact to the traveling public," the spokesman said.
