Key Routes and Corridors
I-35W Through Fort Worth
I-35W is Fort Worth's central north-south freeway, carrying traffic from the Texas-Oklahoma border through downtown and south toward Hillsboro where it merges back with I-35E. The corridor is one of the busiest in North Texas. A 3.7-mile segment of I-35W in Tarrant County was historically ranked as the most congested roadway in Texas, and it remains one of the state's most significant bottlenecks, causing over 800,000 annual hours of delay per mile.
The most congested stretch runs from the I-30 interchange (the Mixmaster) north through the downtown split, past the Stockyards area, and up to Loop 820 North. Morning southbound traffic stacks up from North Richland Hills through downtown as commuters pour in from Keller, Haslet, and the Alliance corridor. The evening reversal northbound can back up from downtown past the Western Center Boulevard exit.
The Panther Island/Central City project continues to reshape the I-35W corridor through downtown. Camera coverage here is especially useful for tracking construction-related lane closures and detours.

VIEW I-35W CAMERAS โLoop 820 (I-820)
Loop 820 is the primary freeway loop encircling Fort Worth, running approximately 35 miles through residential and commercial areas. Unlike Dallas's LBJ Freeway (I-635), Loop 820 has fewer lanes and less capacity, which means congestion builds quickly at key interchanges.
The worst bottlenecks form at:
- Loop 820 at I-35W North: Merge traffic from both directions during rush hours
- Loop 820 at I-30 East: Arlington-bound commuters stack up afternoon
- Loop 820 at I-20 South: Freight traffic from the intermodal facilities compounds commuter volume
I-30 Tom Landry Freeway
I-30 connects Fort Worth to Dallas through Arlington and Grand Prairie. This corridor handles massive traffic volumes, particularly on event days at AT&T Stadium (Cowboys), Globe Life Field (Rangers), and the Arlington entertainment district. Regular commuter traffic is heavy in both directions during rush hours, with eastbound morning traffic and westbound afternoon traffic being the dominant flows.
I-20 and US-287
I-20 crosses the southern portion of the Fort Worth metro, connecting Weatherford to the west with Arlington and Dallas to the east. US-287 heads northwest from Fort Worth toward Wichita Falls, carrying a mix of commuter and long-haul freight traffic. The US-287/I-35W interchange south of downtown is a major congestion point.
Rush Hour and Event Traffic
DFW Event Traffic Warning
AT&T Stadium and Globe Life Field events in Arlington can gridlock I-30 and SH-360 for hours. Check cameras 2+ hours before and after Cowboys, Rangers, and concert events.
Fort Worth rush hours are among the most congested in Texas:
| Corridor | AM Peak | PM Peak | Key Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| I-35W North | 6:30-9:00 AM | 4:00-6:30 PM | Alliance commuters |
| I-35W South | 7:00-8:30 AM | 4:30-6:00 PM | Burleson/Hillsboro |
| Loop 820 | 7:00-8:30 AM | 4:30-6:30 PM | All quadrants |
| I-30 East | 6:30-8:30 AM | 4:00-6:30 PM | Arlington events |
| I-20 | 7:00-8:30 AM | 4:30-6:00 PM | Freight-heavy |

Tips for Fort Worth Commuters
Check the Mixmaster Before Downtown
The I-35W/I-30 interchange is Fort Worth's most congestion-prone junction. View cameras here first to decide whether to take I-35W through downtown or loop around on 820.
Monitor Loop 820 Alternates
When Loop 820 is backed up at I-35W, surface streets like Jacksboro Highway, Camp Bowie, and Haltom Road can provide faster alternatives. Check cameras at interchange on-ramps to compare.
Watch for Event Traffic on I-30
AT&T Stadium and Globe Life Field events cause massive backups on I-30 and SH-360. Build a saved route that includes these cameras and check before heading east toward Arlington.
