There's a new high tech toll road ahead — State Highway 121.
It’s a toll road without toll booths. You can pay with an electronic toll tag or without one. Either way, there’s no stopping or slowing down to pay.
The first of its kind in the country, the Texas Department of Transportation’s State Highway 121 will make everyone’s life a little easier in the northern Metroplex area.
The first seven miles of the State Highway 121 toll road opened in July 2006, extending from FM 2281 in Carrollton south to the Denton/Dallas county line near Denton Tap Road and DFW Airport. This new roadway offers drivers a much-needed option to bypass traffic in Denton County and improves access to the airport. Future stretches of State Highway 121 will give drivers relief from traffic congestion in fast-growing areas in Denton and Collin counties.
State Highway 121 is part of TxDOT’s plan to address the Texas Transportation Challenge and give Texans the first-class transportation system they deserve. This state-of-the-art highway will reduce traffic congestion, enhance safety, boost the local economy, and improve air quality.
