In July 2021 a $655 million contract was awarded to Lone Star Constructors, a join venture of Fluor and Austin Bridge and Road, for the second (and final) phase of the IH-35E expansion between IH-635 and the Bush Turnpike. The freeway will be widened to 8 main lanes (four each way) and at least two managed lanes. This project required a substantial right-of-way clearance, mostly on the west side of the freeway.
