Lewisville Lake Toll Bridge (LLTB)
The North Texas Tollway Authority (NTTA) is working cooperatively with Denton County, the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), and the cities of Little Elm, Frisco and Lake Dallas to develop a transportation corridor that includes a new east-west toll bridge across Lewisville Lake. The Lewisville Lake Corridor, which will connect IH 35E at Swisher Road to the Dallas North Tollway at Eldorado Parkway, is approximately 13.8 miles long and divided into eight sections. The NTTA is constructing the 1.7-mile bridge and the communities along the corridor, Denton County and TxDOT will construct and fund improvements to the sections of the roadway approaching the bridge.
The Lewisville Lake Toll Bridge (LLTB) will feature a lighted, tied arch spanning 360 feet at the center of the 1.7-mile bridge. Approaches and thresholds of the bridge will be flanked by pairs of lighted columns. The bridge is anticipated to open to traffic in the third quarter of 2009.
In May 2008, construction on the LLTB reached the 50% completion milestone. Read more...
