Texas kicked off construction on its $13 billion North Houston Highway Improvement Project, a decades-long rebuild of one of America's deadliest interstates.

TxDOT started the rebuild of eight miles of I-35 through central Austin, which lowers the mainlanes, removes the 1970s upper decks and adds two non-tolled high-occupancy-vehicle managed lanes in each direction from US 290 East to SH 71/Ben White Boulevard. First work was the Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard bridge; the corridor is not finished until 2033.
