North Dallas Tollway closure today: Is it completely closed? When will it reopen? Latest updates

On Friday, September 25, a multi-vehicle collision involving a semi-truck closed the Dallas North Tollway in both directions near West Northwest Highway. Emergency crews responded to several 911 calls at 11:08 am regarding a serious crash on the southbound tollway. The accident involved six vehicles, an 18-wheeler that rolled onto its side, and caused injuries to three people in their 20s and 30s.

The overturned truck was carrying containers with fluids, including used cooking oil, and a hazardous materials team worked to prevent leaks. Cleanup operations are expected to take time as crews remove the truck, recover spilled fuel, and inspect the roadway. As of the latest update, all southbound lanes remain closed from Walnut Hill Lane to West Northwest Highway, with no estimated reopening time provided.

The North Texas Tollway Authority is overseeing the cleanup and determining when the southbound lanes can safely reopen.
