In the five years since this video has been up, the NE Loop looks like it jumped ahead 100 years into the future when I was last in it in early 2014, and it wasn't even completed yet!
I remember in the 60's, if you got on the wrong road on the old mix-master down town and ended up on I-30, you couldn't get off until Arlington and you ended up paying two tolls!!!
East Loop 820 is a very old freeway, that TXDOT hasn't updated. Other parts of the loop have been, but not east loop. I can't imagine why considering the growth Fort Worth has experienced over the past 20 years.
It is planning to be expanded they are working from SH 183/SH121 interchange to I-30 interchange after that project they will be planning to expand it to further down to I-20
I at first thought it was too. I remember the one time I was in Dallas listning to WBAP while on I-820 but according to Krumni the number was chosen because of WBAP.
Great video, nice choice of music for the ride. WTF with the 4 lane section, that's very un-Texas like :) Yes that Interchange with I-30 on the east side is very nice, great to see it from the lower level.
I think the 820 @ I-30 interchange on the east side of Fort Worth was more of an afterthought. The interchange did not exist when I-30 east of FW was still the DFW Turnpike. The roads just crossed each other with no connections.
I think it's a coincidence. It could've been called 220, 420, or 620 because of the interstate number naming system. Maybe Amon Carter had the ears of the highway folks when they were naming the freeways in the 50s and onward.
Dude! I hate to say this but all major DFW freeways are worse! All the major interstate highways are congested from I-30, I-35, I-20, I-45, 114,183, I-635, 75. Anything that's within the city limits is when it gets really bad.
