Kind of like the Austin meet I posted earlier last month, I'm testing the waters for a Dallas meet in early 2012, possibly in March or April. If anybody is interested, here are some ideas:

- Construction of the Woodall Rodgers Freeway just west of Downtown
- Tour of the High Five
- 'The Curve' on US-175
- Revamped I-30 in Arlington

Ideas are MORE than welcome as this is still in the preliminary stages. Any feedback would be great!
Quite possibly AARoads youngest poster. But I don't let that get in my way.

It's close enough to me that I'd certainly have to try to make it!

I really would like to attend such a meet, but I fear Texas is a tad but too far for me.

They're working on the TX 114 and TX 121 freeways on the north side of DFW Airport, and the I-635 work has started in north Dallas, also the deck park work continues in downtown Dallas over Woodall Rodgers Freeway.  I think I heard something about new ramp interchange connectors now being put in at I-20/TX 161 in Grand Prairie as well.  Oh, and work has started for the interchange on Chisholm Trail Pkwy. (the TX 121 tolled extension in SW (and south of) Fort Worth) where it crosses at I-20/TX 183.  They're still working on the interchange ramps at Dallas N. Tollway/TX 121-Sam Rayburn Tollway.  I think they're done with the redo of US 75/TX 121's interchange in McKinney.  Those might be more than what can be taken in in a day, though  ;-)  I'd be interested, not sure what my car situation will be by then (I'm without at the moment).

Definitely conceivable. Nail the date down and I'll let you know.

I was reminded of another ongoing project before I left work this morning: the Bush Turnpike east extension between TX 78 and I-30.  A new interchange at I-30 is being built also for the turnpike.  It's a lot busier around DFW than I realized :D
