NTTA and TxDOT reach agreement on future toll roads
This month the NTTA Board of Directors convened a Special Called Meeting to vote on an agreement between the North Texas Tollway Authority (NTTA) and the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) aimed at establishing a process for building future toll roads in the region. The Board approved the TxDOT/NTTA Regional Protocol unanimously. The Texas Transportation Commission (TTC) will vote on the agreement at its next regular meeting on Thursday, August 24th.
The NTTA and TxDOT have been working together on this agreement over the last several weeks. Under the new agreement, the NTTA will operate all toll road projects in North Texas for at least the first five years, regardless of who builds the road, while agreeing not to pursue SH 121 in Collin and Denton Counties, and SH 161 in Dallas County as NTTA projects.

Both projects will be completed by mid-October.
