It runs through Fort Worth before rejoining with I-35E to reform I-35 in Denton. It is the more direct route for long-distance expressway traffic, as is noted on signs on I-35 leading into the I-35W/I-35E splits.

In 1957, the state began receiving federal funding for the construction of the Interstate Highway System.
