Wow I love the submerged toll lanes. Which parts of 635 is this? What is the construction status?

The tolled HOVs will run from US 75 to I-35E submerged, except for around the Dallas North Tollway interchange.  Those will have to be at the same level as the main lanes because the Tollway runs under I-635 there.

They started in Spring 2011, and say they'll be done by late 2015.  Not sure if they're ahead of projections or not.  By the way things look right now with what I see, it'll be a while.  Supposedly the part to the south on I-35E (the r i d i c u l o u s l y long overhead ramps) are supposed to be done by 2014.
