From Wikipedia:
Central Expressway is a north-south highway in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex in Texas (USA) and surrounding areas. The best-known section is the North Central Expressway, a name for a freeway section of U.S. Highway 75 between downtown Dallas and Van Alstyne, Texas. The southern terminus is south of the Woodall Rodgers Freeway at exit 284C of "hidden" Interstate 345 (signed as Interstate 45 southbound and US 75 northbound). From there, Central Expressway becomes the South Central Expressway, the northernmost portion of which was renamed César Chávez Boulevard on April 9, 2010.

I love how TXDOT makes their entire freeway concrete, not just the overpasses, it’s so satisfying to listen to! Awesome drive btw!

@MarcBookPro Год назад

Houston and Dallas do, but Austin and San Antonio are pretty asphalt-heavy cities.

This highway from the Woodall-Rogers Freeway northward has aged well. Yet it's insane how much traffic it carries.

Well deserved. It's impressive how well it moves traffic with the population of the area.

@Mileage Mike Travels I think you happened to driving during non rush hour because normally it's backed up solid from downtown to 635

@stevengolden9009 Год назад

I lived in Dallas in the early 1970s and Central Expressway was horrible and dangerous in the day. RU-vid has some video of it from a news report back then. Our family had moved away before they did the redesign.

@@stevengolden9009 True. I drove on it in the early 1970s and the ramps were very short and difficult to use safely.

The High 5 is to Dallas as the Katy Freeway is to Houston and the Downtown Connector is to Atlanta. Everyone who records roads in these cities have those roads featured in the videos.

S. Central Expressway is TX 310 and is also known as S. M. Wright Expressway. I-45 is Julius Schepps Freeway. Central Expressway is routed across I-45 near the former JCT with US 175 to downtown Dallas where it splits into one-way streets. The opposite direction downtown is Pearl Expressway. Both one-way streets come back as a freeway right at the north end of I-345.

17:27... On either side, you can see the approaches of a 201-foot-long pedestrian/bicyclist bridge yet to be completed. They built the center section behind one of the retail strip centers, then wheeled and lifted it into place.

May 26, 2023: Dallas City Council Approves TxDOT Plan for I-345 Remodel After over a decade of debate, a major thoroughfare is set to be rebuilt after a vote by City Council. The city of Dallas is moving forward with a Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) plan to remodel Interstate 345. The expressway bridge dividing downtown and Deep Ellum will be torn down and rebuilt as a below-grade, six-lane trench with overpasses and a new deck park. -------- Part of the delay was due to some people advocating with doing away with that stretch of highway completely and replacing it with a street level boulevard. Not practical. "TxDOT said replacing I-345 with a boulevard would create more traffic and break the north-south connection, and the city would be on the hook for the construction costs. The removal could also cause potential civil rights violations and affect the city’s ability to get certain funding and support from the state and federal government, according to TxDOT."

@garyd.7372 Год назад

I watched this one at 2x speed; it didn't seem all that fast to me. Perhaps most Texas drivers drive at double the posted speed. Given the distances, you have to drive "briskly" to get anywhere in a decent amount of time. I knew a guy with the City of Dallas who synchronized the lights on city streets (signed for 35mph) to be optimized for their normal 50mph traffic flow. Then I moved to San Francisco which has streets (signed for 30mph) optimized for 20mph traffic flow. Yuck.
