Public Invited to Dallas North Tollway Extension Project Meetings

Two public meetings will be held in March to discuss the proposed alignments for the extension of the Dallas North Tollway in Collin, Denton and Grayson counties from FM 428 north to approximately FM 121, referred to as the Dallas North Tollway Extension, Phase 4B/5A. 

The first public meeting will be held from 6 to 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday, March 9, 2010, at the PointBank Community Room in Pilot Point (200 S. Hwy. 377, Pilot Point, Texas, 76258) in Denton County, Texas. The second public meeting will be held from 6 to 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, March 11, 2010, at the Celina Middle School Cafeteria (710 E. Pecan Street, Celina, Texas, 75009) in Collin County, Texas.

“Our goal is to exchange information regarding the development of the proposed alignment alternatives to interested citizens and stakeholders and to provide a forum for which the public may provide input,” said NTTA Assistant Executive Director of Project Delivery Gerry Carrigan.

Maps, drawings and other information about the project will be on display during the open house. The materials will show the alignment alternatives and preliminary design information. The study team will be available at the displays to assist in orientation and interpretation of the drawings and other materials.   

Attendees will have the opportunity to provide the study team with comments and suggestions by providing verbal comments to be documented by a court reporter or submitting written comments. Such comments will assist project personnel with the project planning associated with this study. All interested citizens are invited to attend these public meetings.

Any interested citizen may present verbal or written comments either at the public meeting or provide written comments by March 21, 2010. Comments may be submitted via email to dnt45@ntta.org or mailed to Attn: Corridor Manager, Re: DNT 4B/5A Project, NTTA, P.O. Box 260729, Plano, Texas, 75026.

Persons interested in attending the meeting who have special communication or accommodation needs are encouraged to call (972) 628-3111 at least 72 hours prior to the meetings.  Every reasonable effort will be made to accommodate those needs.
