Nice job on the time-lapse video! I have a couple of questions.

Click the video details? Where?

You must have shot this on a Saturday or Sunday morning last winter due to the lack of traffic correct?

No trade secrets but… Was this shot on video and sped up or frames taken out to get this smooth of an effect? The fastest I can shoot my DSLR is a frame a second and its nowhere near this smooth at highway speeds.

Keep up the Great work for your latest subscriber!

@1sennafan 1: Saturday morning 8-9am 2: Video was shot normal, then speeded up in software  3: if you want to see more DFW highways just search, i have all of them.

@screwdupclickv2 - understood, hope you can shoot the segment E and F-1 and the upcoming hempstead tollway since my relatives live in that area (cypress).

any reason why north tarrant express is unique, in your opinion? public-private partnership? there will be an in n out burger in hurst right next to the north tarrant express, so grab yourself some double double and watch the whole show. lol

@therapy2run im intrested in the corridor simply because of the fact that the NL820 35w lnterchange is a 1960s 1st generation stack . simply to become a mega interchange and one of the widest frwys in the state , with every majoy connector and every HOV connector . first of a kind in the united states

The Los Angeles freeway system is a joke compared to the DFW freeway system :D

I guess its true what you say, everything IS bigger in Texas.

@ScrewdUPClickV2 I wish I didnt have to see any more DFW highways to tell ya the truth. I deal with them and the idiots on them on a daily basis.

As far as the DFW Connector Project living in Grapevine it seems to change daily and even hourly sometimes.Now we get a couple of one way bridges to contend with for months to come. OH What Fun!

@therapy2run hempstead tollway has been delayed untill further notice . txodt will re-strip segements of the nw freeway east of sam houston tollway using the 11 ft medians on eachside to create a additional lane in the next month or 2 . the expansion has been delayed for a yr or 2 westbound from the tollway to 610 . the interchange with 610 is still scheduled for this yr. my 290 dot com.

@therapy2run the Tarrant expess will be a more primary focus for me over the next few years..
