The Texas Department of Transportation and the Federal Highway Administration broke ground on the last phase of the Loop 1604 North Expansion project Wednesday.

The $182 million project phase - titled "Texas Clear Lanes" - is expected to improve the corridor from Judson Road to Interstate 35, according to a TxDOT news release.

The phase also connects the Loop 1604 North Expansion to the Interstate 35 Northeast Expansion, TxDOT said in the release.
